The automigration part don't work on my ubuntu desktop. And the entry
in ~/.gnome2/session-manual are not executed either.
I searched on net and it looks like all the main window managers for
linux, kde, gnome, xfce, all can read a .desktop entry in
~/.config/autostart. So they are at least agree on something.

The above syntax is right.
But I am surprised that you don't have seen the problem. Try the following:
gnome-screensaver-command --exit
dispwin -c
gnome-screensaver
dispwin -L monitor.icc
dispwin -L -V monitor.icc
gnome-screensaver-command -a
dispwin -L -V monitor.icc
