[Desktop-packages] [Bug 771896] Re: No way to save current session
Unfortunately this
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1037616/comments/4)
does not work for me.
I'm on Ubuntu Trusty with Gnome3 (gnome-session 3.9.90-0ubuntu12).
I started with the following workaround (manual method see bottom for a
automated one):
1) download dex (https://github.com/jceb/dex) to e.g. ~/dex and make it
executable (chmod +x ~/dex)
2) execute this in a terminal:
$ dconf write /org/gnome/gnome-session/auto-save-session-one-shot true
or if you like to save every session:
$ dconf write /org/gnome/gnome-session/auto-save-session true
3) open the apps you want to have been restored on login
4) Logout from Gnome
5) open Startup Programs settings tool
6) add a new entry and type in the full path to dex with the following
options:
(replace [YOUR-USER] with your username and correct path)
#
Name: Restore Gnome Session
Command: /home/[YOUR-USER]/dex.py -a -s
/home/[YOUR-USER]/.config/gnome-session/saved-session/
Comment: This will restore the last saved Gnome session
#
7) now remove the gnome arguments from the session files:
find ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session -type f -name *.desktop -exec sed
-i 's/--sm-c.*//g' {} \;
This will remove for every desktop file the gnome start arguments. They are not
needed cause we do not use Gnome for restoring them.
8) On next login depending on your choice in 2) either the last session or the
last saved session is restored
Notes:
If you choosen the second option in step 2) which means saving on each logout
you need to automate step 7, too.
This way it will be sure that before the restore happens that the replacements
are made.
If you have choosen the one-shot in step 2) and you want to change
some apps simply re-run the command in 2) then do your changes and do
not forget to do step 7 again.
**
I used that a while and I come up with this scripted one:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xdajog/misc/master/restore-session.sh
Maybe useful for others so..
# INSTALL:
# 0) Download above script and place it somewhere handy
# 1) Download DEX (https://github.com/jceb/dex) and change the DEX var in this
script
# 2) Use dconf write /org/gnome/gnome-session/auto-save-session-one-shot true
#(or auto-save-session true if you want to save EVERY session)
# 3) Open the apps you like
# 4) Open startup programs settings tool of Gnome and add the full path to this
script
# 5) logout and enjoy your next login

There is no way I can find to set up a session the way you'd like to

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 370855] Re: Pasting with Middle Mouse Button into Gnome Terminal Delivers Multiple Copies
as this is not application related I changed to gnome-shell instead ** Package changed: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) = gnome-shell (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370855 Title: Pasting with Middle Mouse Button into Gnome Terminal Delivers Multiple Copies Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-terminal Since installing Jaunty, I'm frequently getting text pasted twice when using the middle mouse button to paste into the terminal..

one thing to add: it happens in other terminals like terminator too. same for editors etc so it is definitively not application related -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370855 Title: Pasting with Middle Mouse Button into Gnome Terminal Delivers Multiple Copies Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-terminal Since installing Jaunty, I'm frequently getting text pasted twice when using the middle mouse button to paste into the terminal..

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 370855] Re: Pasting with Middle Mouse Button into Gnome Terminal Delivers Multiple Copies
As the others reported I can confirm that this happens since years in Ubuntu. I currently using 14.04 x64 but it happened in 12.04 x64, too. In my case the multiple paste occurs sometimes NOT. It means when I use it to paste the first 2 or 3 or 4 times I get the multiple pastes but after that I get it once as suggested. his is really annoying and I wondering why so less people reporting on this. Well maybe it is the same reason why I waited until today ;o) hope that a merciful dev trying to fix that..
