How to autostart applications on login?

[Luis Mendre]

What i did was create a file in the kde/Autostart folder and named
startprograms.sh and make it executable whit this inside:

-----------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
sleep 2 && beryl-manager;                    <====2 seconds
sleep 4 && /usr/bin/net_applet --force;    <====4 seconds
sleep 6 && amarok;                               <====6 seconds
sleep 8 && kget;                                   <====8 seconds
sleep 10 && smb4k;                              <===10 seconds
-----------------------------------------------------------
and it will start my applications # of seconds after kde is runing.
