 Installed Osmo, now it always loads after boot

Guys,
Running Slacko 5.3.1.
I experimented with OSMO with sample data, etc.
Now, OSMO always loads after boot.
Have not found a setting that controls this.
Need to Not Load Automatically after boot.

Osmo |

Hi glene77is,
Try this:
Right-click on Osmo icon in the System Tray and select Show Options,
Goto General --> System Tray and make sure that the box that says Start minimized is unchecked.
Hope this helps,
Monsie

Monsie,
Also a city, up river from New York City, home of a Ford plant in the 60's.
Thanks, Will do. 
Your suggestions are the only ones that I could find, also.
Am always ready for surprises, however. 
Running Slacko.
I do a copy of the savefile every few days,
so I reverted back to a clean one.
( Each savefile is dated, and the last one 'x' out, not deleted.
This rotates the space used on my USB PenDrives,
and should greatly lengthen their life-cycle of re-writes.
Also lets me back-step when my software experiments scrunch. )
Since the savefiles stack up, 4 deep,
plus one minimal 512 first time BASIC.3fs,
I can re-select the troublesome one,
and continue the experimenting with Osmo .
Having come from a career around Relational Databases in M$, I find the next best thing in Linux is the Libre-Office Calc spreadsheet, and it seems that Osmo is a step lower than that (although I must admit that it is eye-catching, smooth and has convenient.forms to guide a user.). My old Logging relational system was a whiz-bang money-maker, but FoxPro does not run in Linux, and I just don't want to go back to M$. Had thought about taking up a Linux compatible language and using SQLite, but having retired I decided I wanted to play with the Linux OS at the application-level, not designing/writing applications any more. ( Have started playing with BASH, whew! )
Slacko is neat. Lucid 525 was neat also. Tiny-Core is too small. PartedMagic is a great tool. Knoppix is a good distro. Half dozen others I have brought up have all been an interesting experience. Since all are basically 'free' and 'no-yearly-license', I have been able to afford to tinker and probe.
After leaving M$ several years back
Linux has been much fun
