I wanted to start terminator when knoppix loads, so I made a desktop entry file in .config/autostart

Calling the file mybash.desktop it consists of

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=mybash
Type=Application
Path=/home/knoppix
Exec=/usr/bin/terminator
Terminal=false
and the full path of the file is /home/knoppix/.config/autostart/mybash.desktop

and every time knoppix boots into the desktop, it will launch a terminal window.
