    Put the command in /etc/rc.local which is the last script run at boot. You'll need to edit it with sudo.

    I tried the following and it doesnt work


    #!/bin/sh -e
    #
    # rc.local
    #
    # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
    # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
    # value on error.
    #
    # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
    # bits.
    #
    # By default this script does nothing.
    su -c /home/fixjack/Unreal3.2/./unreal start



    exit 0

    what he means is that you need to edit the file with sudo.
    $sudo nano /etc/rc.local
    remove the "su -c" from the line you added.
