Package: metacity Version: 1:2.22.0-1 Severity: normal After logging in on a clean desktop, spawning a few gnome-terminals and saving my session, I see the following things happening.
In ~/.gnome2/session gnome-terminal shows up: 2,RestartCommand=gnome-terminal --sm-config-prefix /gnome-terminal-5L7Tu9/ --sm-client-id 1186bcabc4000120654706300000036850013 --screen 0 --window-with-profile-internal-id=Default --hide-menubar --role=gnome-terminal-31523--1005079979-1206547064 --active --geometry 80x57+855+25 --title [EMAIL PROTECTED]:\\ ~ --working-directory /home/bilm --zoom 1 --window-with-profile-internal-id=Default --hide-menubar --role=gnome-terminal-31523-2109864045-1206547065 --active --geometry 80x30+1600+599 --title [EMAIL PROTECTED]:\\ ~ --working-directory /home/bilm --zoom 1 --window-with-profile-internal-id=Default --hide-menubar --role=gnome-terminal-31523-229941220-1206547065 --active --geometry 80x30+1600+0 --title [EMAIL PROTECTED]:\\ ~ --working-directory /home/bilm --zoom 1 Notice the geometry options. They reflect the geometry and placement I intended. However, when logging in, I see random behaviour. Sometimes the windows appear at the proper position with the proper size, but shortly after that, they get resized to default sizes or placed to the wrong position (often the top left corner of the screen). Sometimes they just get placed directly at the wrong position and often with the wrong size. It seems there is some race condition somewhere.... Anyway, this is very annoying. After each login I still have to manually arrange my gnome-terminals... saving my session was meant to avoid that. This behaviour started around when GNOME 2.20 got in testing. I've seen it on several other Debian systems as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686-bigmem (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages metacity depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.14-1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libgconf2-4 2.22.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.1-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.9-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libmetacity0 1:2.22.0-1 library of lightweight GTK2 based ii libpango1.0-0 1.20.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1+b1 X11 Session Management library ii libstartup-notification0 0.9-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.0-1 X11 Composite extension library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.1-3 X11 damaged region extension libra ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxinerama1 2:1.0.3-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.2-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii metacity-common 1:2.22.0-1 Shared files of lightweight GTK2 b Versions of packages metacity recommends: ii gnome-session [x-session-mana 2.20.3-2 The GNOME 2 Session Manager -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
