I took the following actions: 1. Closed offending program 2. Opened terminal screen and typed "gnome-session-save" 3. Pressed enter. It moved to next line with no error message, but no acknowledgement that command was entered, either. 4. Rebooted 5. Problem continues -- Robert Mark Wallace 60 Delaware Road Newburgh, NY 12550-3802 Telephone: (845) 566-0586

Again -- I suggested trying to manually "save session" at this point [yes, now] to see if that helps. The old session may have been saved as the battery died (to allow you to get back to where you were), and the default is to restore back into the same session setup -- which will continue until a new "save session" is done. Sessions are something built into X itself, so removing and reinstalling the movie player(s) would not change this. In other words, the current behavior you see fits the possibility of this been a session-related issue. -- Chris _______________________________________________ Mid-Hudson Valley Linux Users Group http://mhvlug.org http://mhvlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mhvlug Upcoming Meetings (6pm - 8pm) MHVLS Auditorium Jun 2 - Android Jul 7 - Patent Absurdity - The Movie Aug 4 - Samba
