I think that you can use ~/.config/autostart/fusuma.desktop to set up autostart.

Try creating the following .desktop file:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=fusuma
Comment=run fusuma
# If it doesn't work, check the path with `which fusuma`
Exec=fusuma -d --log=/tmp/fusuma.log --verbose
Icon=input-touchpad
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
Type=Application

After creating the file, make sure its permissions are correct, and then check whether it starts automatically. Especially ensure the Exec path is correct by running the which fusuma command in the terminal to get the correct path and use it instead of fusuma in the Exec line if necessary.
