Description Ignis Incendio 2023-05-30 15:51:48 UTC
The package currently does not include an autostart function, so I added one to my XFCE setup by adding "glava --desktop" into my "Session and Startup" > "Application Autostart" settings panel.

This does not work on a login right after a fresh boot, as it does not appear. However, if I then log out, and log back in again, it works as expected. A visualiser appears on the desktop on login.

I could use some guidance on where I can find a log to help me debug this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add "glava --desktop" to the XFCE autostart.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Login.

Actual Results:  
No visualiser appears on the desktop.

Expected Results:  
A visualiser appears on the desktop.
