I don't think it is at all that simple.  Every LaunchAgent I've  
PROPERLY setup has worked just fine.  However, osascript ASSUMES the  
Finder is present, so without a finder it's going to be weird.

I suspect there's more to this than simply "they don't work".

Why are we talking about going to bed with Wilma Flintstone? Cat:  
You're right. We're nuts. This is an insane conversation. Lister:  
She'll never leave Fred, and we know it.
