I am trying to execute a simple script lxterminal -e "/home/pi/superscript.sh" in a normal terminal it works perfectly. But if i try putting it in to /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart witch looks like this after this procedure: 

@lxpanel --profile LXDE-pi
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE-pi
@xscreensaver -no-splash
@point-rpi
@lxterminal -e "/home/pi/superscript.sh"

Nothing happens after start up. What could be the error here?

If using lxterminal Don't forget to set the working directory with --working-directory="/home/pi/somedirectory", specially if you try to call some program not in standard path!

The global LXDE autostart file is ignored if there is a local autostart.

In Raspbian there is a local file: /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart.

Adding the command to that file should start it when you log in to the GUI.
