Since development primarily happens upstream, we like to move the issues that we aren't tracking for a particular release upstream to make sure everyone is on the same page (it doesn't always go down that way because bug triage is time consuming, but that's the general rule). If you want to follow along, CC yourself on the upstream report.

with Ubuntu 10.04: 1) the gnome-terminal and nautilus windows are restored not iconized, if they were iconized at shutdown time. 2) the application position inside task bar are not restored in the correct order (are always swapped) 3) Mozilla windows are all restored on the first desktop, even if they are in other desktops at shut down time. -- gnome-session storing broken since intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This bug persists with me, too: I exited Pidgin, run gnome-session-save, logged out logged in and Pidgin reappeared automatically. (Pidgin is not an entry in System Preferences Startup Applications.) The same result when I rebooted instead of logging out. uname -a; Linux MD97600 2.6.28-14-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jul 25 00:28:35 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux This Ubuntu version is a dist-upgrade from 8.04.2 8.10 9.04.

[Bug 249373] Re: gnome-session storing broken since intrepid
This works somewhat better, but not entirely, for me in 9.04 (upgraded from 8.10). For example: start a new session, then run up Firefox, Emacs, Inkscape, Scribus and gnome-terminal, open documents in all of them (where applicable), replace metacity with my preferred window manager (which is not metacity or compiz). Then select Restart, reboot, and log in again. The restarted session contains Firefox with all of the correct tabs open (though none of them load, as network-manager has not yet reestablished the network connection). It also has Emacs and gnome-terminal. So that's a definite improvement. But it does not restart Scribus or Inkscape at all, and it has the wrong window manager. Reading .xsession-errors it looks like gnome-session tries to run my preferred window manager, but it has already started metacity before that, so the right window manager then fails to start. There are also some weird random errors -- once it started Emacs with a window only a few pixels large, and it often seems to open an additional window from some program that I did not have open at all before (a Nautilus window on some arbitrary directory, or a Tomboy index window). It doesn't seem to make any difference whether I Restart or Log Out, both work equally (i.e. partially). Altogether, better than 8.10 but still a regression from 8.04. I haven't established yet whether the programs that were not restarted had been given a chance to save their documents before exit or not -- that's quite important.

[Bug 249373] Re: gnome-session storing broken since intrepid
This is still not working for me, unfortunately. I have the latest version of gnome-session available from Jaunty (2.26.0svn20090408-0ubuntu2) and the problem remains: Log Out from the FUSA applet works properly, whereas Shut Down and Restart don't. My test case is to leave Firefox running and terminate the session. After Log Out, Firefox restarts automatically with the same tabs. When any one of the other two options is used, it complains later about having been terminated abnormally. -- gnome-session storing broken since intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Just a short comment to confirm what user Christoph reported above: session shutdown and saving is sort of working when the log out option is chosen in the menu, but not when the restart or shut down options are selected. -- gnome-session storing broken since intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 249373] Re: gnome-session storing broken since intrepid
My understanding from the GNOME bugtracker is that a fix exists, but is not included in 2.26.0 (hopefully in 2.26.1). This presumably means the fix will not be in 9.04, but is likely to appear in a subsequent update -- is that right? I see no mention of it in the known issues section of the notes at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/jaunty/beta (not sure whether I would expect to see issues reported there that are not regressions new to this particular release), but this seems consistent with Christoph's comment above and Sebastien's change to the summary. In the mean time, has anyone had a go at using gnome-session 2.22 with the rest of gnome 2.26? I currently have gnome-session and gnome-panel 2.22 packages on hold while using 2.24 for everything else, and I'd like to get an idea of whether it will be possible to leave them held while upgrading the rest of the distro from 8.10 to 9.04. -- gnome-session storing broken since intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
