  2. Choose Kickoff Application Launcher->System Settings->Advanced->Session Manager from the Advanced tab on the top and then the Advanced User Settings section. Click the Session Manager button on the right. Ensure that the Restore manually saved session checkbox is enabled.

  3. Another method to start programs automatically with login is to copy the desktop entry of the application from /usr/share/applications to the ~/.kde/Autostart directory.

  2. Click on the Administrator Mode... and enter the proper user password to gain administrator privileges.
