Hello,

since the last update barrier does not start after programstart.

On the local machine this is just a nuisance, but on the remote machines
 without their own keyboard and/or mouse it is a significant error.

For further questions I am available.

Howdy,

Does going to the main interface and clicking Barrier →Change settings → "
Start Barrier on Startup" Help?

Howdy,

It's been about a month, have you been able to confirm whether that option is
checked or not?  Did it help?  While that seems to work fine here, there may be
other things at play, if it does not help then perhaps setting the log level
higher and checking into .xsession-errors could be useful?

Additionally, there's a report (or a couple) upstream about Barrier getting
stuck on starting, though this doesn't sound like your issue as you are able to
manually start it (so it seems?), it may be worth looking at[0].

Please advise either way.
