How do I make an application autorun at login for all users? Im trying to have conky autorun for all users. I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 64bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I found it... I had to write a script
#!/bin/bash
sleep 5 && conky &
the sleep 5 is to delay conky from starting always on top of all windows.
I named it conky_start.sh and placed it in /etc/profile.d
I just got the startup applications menu back. I don't know specifically how I did it, but I believe it was when I install Ubuntu Tweaks. In any case I followed a few of the suggestions at these two pages. Hope this helps until someone else gives a more specific answer. Conky rocks!

Ive got the startup applications menu but that only works for the current user. I need it to work for all users.– RexMay 4, 2012 at 8:20
