Ah! Good, that one works, thank you! :-)
However... there is a bug. Two, actually.
1) When I run "gnome-session-save" (from inside a "gnome-terminal"), the
session is saved, popping a window telling me if I want to save, and
another that some windows can not be saved (firefox-bin, jdictionary,
xconsole...). But, and this is very disconcerting, the Yast software
management window that I had minimized (I asked in another thread)
does pop up again, asking as well if I want to install or remove more
packages!
Ie, "gnome-session-save" causes other minimized windows to pop up!
2) In the gnome-terminal I run gnome-session-save from, I get this error
message (which is also logged to syslog):
GConf-WARNING **: Owner of /tmp/gconfd-cer2 is not the current user
Notice that I'm running as "cer", not "cer2", which is another
different user that doesn't concern at all the current session
(nothing is currently running as "cer2"). Why is gconf medling with
"cer2"?

Quite often, actually. My procedure is to open those apps I want opened at
start, then save the session status (I did this previously by login out
and clicking the box - which does not exist now). This way, when I exit
normally my current status is not saved (good!), and on next log-in I get
the exact desktop I want, not the last one I used (and I don't have to
bother clossing manually every thing I don't want restarted).
I most definitely want to save the session status at my defined points in
time, and not automatically on exit.
