Which rpm?

I just (roughly) browsed through what I could find (*mdk* & *at*) and they
do not install a autolauncher anywhere.

Those files don't even exist in my root. (and yes, I know to do an ls -a)

Are you sure you're not just fighting the default KDE session manager (By
default KDE will save your "session" on logout and restore it when you start
back up).

Of course if this were the problem then you'd be able to close myth, log
out, and everything would be fine when you logged back in.

For KDE sessions the place to look is .kde/share/config/ksmserverrc but if
it is a KDE session manager problem you are better off letting it handle
things for you.

You may already know of -a, but what of 'find ~ -print0 -type f | xargs -0
grep -l mythfrontend'?

Are you exiting out of KDE before quitting MythTV? If so, KDE is
probably restoring your previous session. KDE usually tries to reopen
anything you had open the last time you logged out. Exit completely out
of MythTV, then log out, and see if it still happens.

Anduin, I think you are right. I made sure I closed all terminals
before logging out, and mythfrontend no longer autostarts. Must have
been a KDE session restore problem. Thanks!

Dana
