Accidentally removed at-spi-dbus-bus from startup folder

Asked by D E

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04 and am getting used to it.

I do not have a strong Unix background, so I struggle with the terminal code.

Since my computer is older, I was attempting to optimize the startup speed by removing unnecessary items from the startup folder (bluetooth, gwibber, etc).

The list of startup programs has a checkbox next to them, so I unchecked all the programs, checked the ones I wanted to remove, and pressed remove.

However, the checked items were not removed--the first protgram in the stack was. That happend to be "at-spi-dbus-bus".

It is my understanding that this should remain in the startup list, but I can find no where that I can re add it to the list. There are examples available to remove items, but nowhere I can find to add.

I searched for the program, but can not locate it on my computer.

Any help would be very much appreciated! Thank you in advance.

Hi ,

open startup application and click add

Fill the name: AT-SPI D-Bus Bus

Fill the command : /usr/lib/at-spi2-core/at-spi-bus-launcher --launch-immediately

Fill the comment : I must never remove this again (Joke hah)

Thanks

Thank you so much, Nick. This worked perfectly.

BTW, could you explain the reason the checkboxes are there? They do not work as I thought they would. I though by checking the ones I wanted to remove and selecting "Remove" that those would be taken out of the list. Apparently that did not happen.

So, what I have done is uncheck the ones I don't want to run at startup and not selected Add/Remove/Edit. Will unchecking an item make it not run at startup?

Thank you again in advance!

Hello ,

please mark this question as solved , by marking the answer that solved your problem. (Edit question)

You can enable or disable startup applications via tick or UN-tick the specific application.
If check-box is UN-ticked the application shouldn't start on system startup.

Do not remove completely the startup applications , just UN-tick the check-boxes.

Thanks
