thanks for info, that was helpful

Seems I found a reason of all this: trinity runs autostart files from
/usr/share as well as from it's own autorun subdirectory.
The nice workaround will be to remove /usr/share/autostart from an
autorun path. I haven't found yet there those paths are come from but
it should work. Anyway it's not a solution...

IMHO the solution will be to stop using files contaning OnlyShowIn=KDE
(it will require small fixes in tdelibs and tdebase) and change all
such entries in our desktop files to TDE.
