Startup Applications with Ubuntu 12.04

By default, the Startup Applications option within Ubuntu version 12.04 does not display all existing entries.

To view all entries, use the following command within a terminal session:

sudo sed -i 's/NoDisplay=true/NoDisplay=false/g' /etc/xdg/autostart/*.desktop

All items should now appear within the Startup Applications dialog box.
