Replacing XSMP for a better way is a noble goal. However, it is ridiculous that Gnome released 2.24 with a half done version of the new protocol and no trace of the XSMP support. That simply speaks to bad management at the Gnome project. This bug is not something Ubuntu can fix at this point, bu

For a slightly different perspective on this bug, see http://np237.livejournal.com/22014.html However, it's true that the old behaviour was not great: openoffice didn't seem to react to session exits (logouts), for example. -- gnome session does not restore the previous session https://bugs.lau

I know many people who don't want to upgrade to Intrepid until this very annoying bug is resolved. Is somebody working on it?, Why it still appears triage status?. We will have to wait until Jaunty (as ever)?. Perhaps this is not the place to discuss the impotence of view this situation. If some

Per Sebastien's comment, I have added a couple of sentences about this to the Intrepid release notes. I trust that's OK. I think Martin Soto's assessment is spot on. It _is_ worrying that Ubuntu should (as a matter of policy) be so sanguine about this. It's also surprising that GNOME developers

I ended up downgrading gnome-session and gnome-panel to 2.22 as a workaround. It appears to be working OK so far. (You can't just downgrade gnome-session, because gnome-panel depends on the newer version to support essentials such as "log out".) This is what worked for me. Start by adding the H

At the risk of asking a really stupid question, does anyone have an idea whether there's any likelihood of a workaround such as installing and using the Gnome 2.22 session manager with 2.24? Or using a different session manager entirely? I don't mind hacking my system to get this to work, but

Ubuntu is not writting GNOME but only contributing upstream and distributing it. The bug was known before intrepid but downgrading the version was not trivial, it was not clear that GNOME was not going to work on the issue before 2.24 and Ubuntu usually ships the current GNOME.
