Session Mangler? I had nothing but problems with that bloody thing and
it was on by default. If there's finally no SM (or at least not one
that's on by default) I may take another look. My problem was everytime
I upgraded XFCE, the $#@&*% SM was on and folks soon had 100+ sessions
of xconsole and xdaliclock running and wondered why things were so slow.
Seems when you carry something over from the login screen (xdaliclock,
xconsole), second login you have two, third login three, fourth login
four, etc. SM == POS. The XFCE author didn't see it that way. Maybe
he finally got bit.
