First, you can't create a single interface for mobile devices and desktops and who in the hell said they wanted it? MS tried and failed, and so has Ubuntu with Unity. Some things are just illogical. Second, I used to like Gnome and used it exclusively and I'm disgusted by all the downgrades and screwups. One two occasions a simple update has broken Gnome and left me scrambling to get my system repaired so I can work. So I'm going to try xfce and if I'm not feeling better about things, switch to a different Linux. You would think with all these complaints someone would pay attention.
I would like to have someone from Gnome answer these complaints without saying "we think this is better and so do our Moms." A lot of software is ruined with the "Hey, watch this" behavior. People that want to run Unity are people who have simple needs - email, a word processor and a browser. That is not the majority of Linux users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771896 Title: No way to save current session Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-session” source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in “gnome-session” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-session There is no way I can find to set up a session the way you'd like to have Unity start up and then save that setup.
