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, but I hope that those in charge of Ubuntu learn from this problem. It appears that Gnome cannot be trusted to release a new version without major regressions, and Ubuntu needs to rigorously test new versions before committing to them. This regression was noticed in mid July, 3 months before 8.10 was released. If this had been evaluated then, Ubuntu could have avoided releasing a version with this problem (either fixed somehow, not releasing 2.24, or going the Gentoo route and holding the session manager at 2.22). -- gnome session does not restore the previous session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
