The kernel_check.desktop autostart config doesn't seem to work on Ubuntu 23.10 #24

Yes, this is not a supported configuration, but I decided to document it anyway in case it is reproduced in the next LTS release.

I'm using Ubuntu 23.10 with the Ubuntu 22.04 kernel packages included using the APT pinning procedure:

$ cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/prefer-ubuntu-jammy-linux-kernel-packages 
# Prefer OEM-C kernel packages from Ubuntu 22.04LTS for hardware compatibility
Package: linux*-oem-22.04c
Pin: release o=Ubuntu, n=jammy
Pin-priority: 990

Package: *
Pin: release o=Ubuntu, n=jammy
Pin-priority: 50

and followed the rest of the post-installation setup guide for Ubuntu 22.04LTS on the Framework Laptop 13 (AMD 7040 series) product, however, when I checked the logs of the user session I noticed that the autostart configuration installed didn't seem to be properly processed by systemd:

systemd-xdg-autostart-generator[5856]: /home/brlin/.config/autostart/kernel_check.desktop:3: Undefined escape sequence \$.
systemd-xdg-autostart-generator[5856]: /home/brlin/.config/autostart/kernel_check.desktop:3: Failed to parse file: Invalid argument
systemd-xdg-autostart-generator[5856]: Failed to parse /home/brlin/.config/autostart/kernel_check.desktop, ignoring it

I'm not exactly sure whether the zenity dialog shows by the current configuration, but it may be a problem worth looking into.

Closing as this is in fact, not a supported configuration by FW.

Alright, this will definitely not work due to #25.
