If you use the gnome desktop then go to system->preferences->personnel-sessions. The figure below will be displayed. You can activate/desactivate the existing software. You can also add the software you want by specifying the path. You just have to click on "add" button and browse the file system and select the needed file.
Note: On version 2.26, you can find this feature in "system->preferences->startup applications"

on my desktop (rawhide, using an English default) the menu entry is "system->preferences->startup applications"
