[Debian And Ubuntu Legacy Desktop Unofficial Packages For Bittorrent Sync]

It seems that the autostart mechanism does not work under your environment. The autostart-upon-logon sequence is implemented by copying the btsync-agent.desktop file to /etc/xdg/autostart

Content of btsync-agent.desktop:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=BitTorrent Sync User Agent
Comment=BitTorrent Sync User Agent
Exec=/usr/lib/btsync-user/btsync-starter
Icon=btsync-user
Terminal=false
Type=Application
NoDisplay=true

Probably Mint13 Cinamon is not using XDG as the interactive logon process and this makes the packages incompatible with it. Does anybody here know how to implement autostart in this configuration? If someone tells me, I can try to improve the packages.

Thanks for the response. Yes, I see now that KDE doesn't use XDG. I don't know how to get it running myself, so hopefully someone will come along with a solution.

I've install btsycn-user on my Mint13 Cinamon PC, which worked perfectly finem, but I am having trouble with Mint13KDE.

The ~/.btsync.conf & ~/btsync.conf files are empty. A .btsync folder is also there but there's only a .directory file.

ps ax | grep btsync-agent gives me

USER 4457 0.0 0.0 9384 872 pts/1 S+ 19:22 0:00 \_ grep --colour=auto btsync-agent

The /etc/btsync folder is empty and usr/lib/btsync-user has four files Agent, Starter, Stopper & Tester

I've tried removing and reinstalling but just get the same results.

This instruction on your page 1 also doesn't look right to me:

cp ~/.btsync.conf ~/btsync.conf (Sorry. I didn't spot the dot. My apologies)

Can I also just use someone else's btc/btsync-user/btsync-user.conf ?

Thanks.
