I don't use anything to manage my session besides E, and the only time I've ever experienced such problems was ages ago, and it involved abnormal termination of E. > Like I said in another email, I checked the config options for both > e and for the epplets tarbal (no I didn't check the CVS stuff, if > there is something in there that significantly fixes this problem > then maybe we should go ahead and have a release) and I didn't find > anything to do with respawning. You need to try CVS. The last epplets release is ancient. And yes, there will be a 0.7 release soon.

If you had > configured things right you wouldn't have this problem." Let me put it another way. I run 8 or 9 epplets on each of my systems. I haven't had that problem for months, if not years. Thus, it seems logical to conclude that those who are experiencing the problem are doing something to cause it. > Lots of times that may be true but it seems to me that if you can > configure something in a standard out of the box way and still have > problems, that is a "bug" of some kind in some part of the system. I beg to differ. Not everything will always work 100% perfectly out of the box. The defaults are set up so that they work in the majority of cases (or at least in the majority of the developers' cases). > 1.

You should be using epplets from CVS anyway. See above. Michael -- Michael Jennings (a.k.a.
