Disable starting with system not working on Linux (8.x.x) #1104

Hi

Disabling "Launch XDM when system starts" does quite the opposite, XDM keeps starting with system anyway

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to 'Settings'
  2. Click on 'Advanced settings'
  3. Uncheck 'Launch XDM when system starts'
  4. Click on 'Save'

Expected behavior: XDM shouldn't start with system

Same here. Actually, the issue is that the state does not persist after you click "Save".

I'm able to replicate the issue on version 8.0.29, using kernel 6.4.6 (Arch).

Temporary fix:

echo > ~/.config/autostart/xdm-app.desktop chmod a-w ~/.config/autostart/xdm-app.desktop

This seems to be the only place it attempts to launch from on my Mint system. After this, settings will still show "Launch XDM when system starts", but it won't actually load. Note that this behavior has been present since the 7.x branch, so it may not ever be "fixed".
