Micah, If I close my firefox window without closing the session and reopend firefox the Session Restore message will not be shown. The 'standard' behaviour is that the firefox session (open tabs) is restored. A user would expect the same behaviour when firefox is closed as the result of a hibernate or logout. I suspect that what happens is that firefox is not able to store the session succesfully and henceforth deduces that the next time it is started it had 'crashed' before. So we have two behaviors here: 1) user opens firefox, starts browsing, opens tabs, etc. 2) user closes firefox 3) user reopens firefox and the previous session (result of 1) is restored
-and- 1) user opens firefox, starts browsing, opens tabs, etc. 2) user leaves the firefox window open but shuts down, hibernates, her PC 3) user starts computor and logs on. The firefox window is reopend by the window manager. 4) as the firefox was not closed 'normally' it assumes that it crashed There should be a way to distinguish an actual crash of firefox and firefox simply being closed as the result of a shutdonw or reboot. -- "Well, this is embarrassing" message appears often after shutdown and hibernate https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/492001 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
