Ok, I’ll try all that. I just haven’t had the time to mess with it yet.
Meanwhile, I was just reading about XFCE and the new release (4.4). There’s something called Autostarted Applications where you can add a command that will be triggered upon startup. Exactly what I would want! “mt-daapd -y” should be OK, right?
Do you know if that kind of feature exists in Gnome?
Yes, but gnome calls it sessions or something. There is an editor for it somewhere in the preferences maze. So short answer is “yes, but I don’t know where”. :/
