Thanks for the confirmation.

But can I ask a basic layman question..

How come the autostart file is in a root-only location like 
/usr/share/autostart or /etc/xdg/autostart?
Shouldn't it be in a ordinary-user-writable location instead?
Otherwise, how come an ordinary user starting KOrganizer gets 
permissions to install an auto-start file in these root-only locations?
And if one user chooses to autostart KOrganizer, won't it be enabled for 
other users too?


Thanks and regards,
