Hi all,
What do you think about a sound or music when your gnome ok kde desktop is starting? It's just an idea :-)
Regards,
Damien Durand

For gnome, System -> Preferences -> Sounds
For KDE, probably something in kcontrol.

KControl -> Sound & Multimedia -> System Notifications to be exact. :)

And it's quite essential to a blind computer user like yours truly.
However, I find myself wishing I could have thelast action of the desktop loading be some sound event -- so that I can know it's now OK to start pressing keys -- to load my screen reader, for instance.
And, if this sound doesn't play that would likely be very strong evidence that some message has popped up about something not working correctly -- which just might be successfully dismessed by pressing Esc.
I should imagine making some sond file play as the last action of the desktop being loaded is not a difficult thing, but I haven't a clue where to put my aplay command. Advice on that would be most appreciated, e.g. what's the desktop equiv of /etc/rc.local?

On KDE that would be a script file in ~/.kde/Autostart. I think they're executed in alphabetical order, but I'm not sure.
On GNOME there is something like "Startup Programs" in the control center where you could put such a script too.
