Re: Pidgin autostart howto
I thought it was just me...
If you put it in the autostart folder same for Skype) everything will be OK.
Dolphin>View> Show Hidden Folders
Autostart is at Home>.kde> Autostart
RIGHT click. Choose Create New>Link to Application
Go to Application Tab. Put in name: Pidgin. The press Browse button beside Command. Root>usr>bin.Pidgin
Optional: Click the General Tab> Picture of ? and choose the Pidgin icon if you like. (System Icons (Applications ) Pidgin.
Reboot.

Re: Pidgin autostart howto
It doesn't have to be on autostart folder, it runs everytime reboot after the first time, but I don't know how come it suddenly refuse to do that, I don't want to put it in autostart to prevent autorun twice.Do you Yahoo ? No I hiccup only :PComment

Re: Pidgin autostart howto
1) At the moment it's not autostarting without being in the Autostart Folder
2) In the event that it suddenly returns and autoruns twice (
) you can remove it form the Autostart Folder.
