Actually, following up on that question, I'd love some slightly more
detailed information about how people use this feature:
* Do you save your session once, and then resume that same session
over and over again,
yes, but ...
or do you prefer to save your session on
every logout, and always resume the previous session on your
next login. Or do you use save-session-on-logout sometimes, but
not always?
I then save again *sometimes* to preserve a specific state, because I
am doing a set of things specifically for a period of time, and then
when done, I will "recreate" the usual saved settings, and save once
more to get to that state ...
Or do you never use the functionality at all?
* Exactly what sort of "state" are you trying to get it to save
and restore between sessions? Open applications? Open documents?
Window positions? Something else?
open apps, open docs, window position
* Does it work? Or are you thwarted by bugs?
mostly works, though since moving to a gnome desktop I have not yet
used it extensively -- loved it with KDE and will need it again with
gnome
* Have you looked at / used the "Startup Programs" pane of the
Sessions capplet? Does that seem like a better or worse way to
set up your default session? Why?
don't know what you are talking about -- I do have a couple programs
added to startup (skype and gaim) .. is that what you mean?
* Do you have any ideas on how we could present this functionality
that would work better for you than the way it is now?
make it work like it (does/did for me) in KDE, and I will be happy.
