I tried disabling it but it's "generated" so I can't seem to do that.

generated means its made from autostart either from system or homedir

dont know if systemd looks for .desktop specifically but you could make a folder

/etc/xdg/autostart.disabled

/etc/xdg/autostart.disabled

/etc/xdg/autostart.disabled

/etc/xdg/autostart.disabled and move it there

H

HikariKnight•2/8/24, 11:03 PM

only if its in

~/.config/autostart

~/.config/autostart

~/.config/autostart

~/.config/autostart to my knowledge

yeah it doesn't show up there, I already checked

brb gonna reboot and see if it still autostarts after trying @HikariKnight's suggestion. TY guys.

Maybe it is located in

/etc/systemd/user

/etc/systemd/user

/etc/systemd/user which is sometimes interpreted as

great, another problem solved and happy person

but now of course I may have to deal with screen sharing not working since it isn't autostarted and I'll have to manually start it, but eh that's not a big deal

R

RuqOP•2/8/24, 11:07 PM

I tried figuring out how to hit the little xwayland-video-bridge window from things like Overview and alt-tab switching but to no avail.

everything has it's "Pro" and "Cons"

How can I disable xwayland-video-bridge from autostarting? It seems like it's systemd that starts it
