Sebatien, Would you be kind enough to point us to the mailing list or WIKI that discusses these upstream issues?
Per the August 8th changelog entry within the gnome-session source indicates this was fixed. Traffic on the desktop-devel-list is somewhat sparse after the initial proposal to revamp gnome-session to dbus instead of xsmp. Traffic to gnome-list concerning the problem seems to be 2.22 oriented. Nothing is mentioned in the Gnome 2.24 showstopper review. A quick review of the desktop files generated for gnome-terminal indicate that gnome-terminal does not currently have AutostartCondition nor X-GNOME-Autostart-*. Reading through the proposal thread http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2008-June/msg00210.html indicates that xsmp was completely dropped in favor of the new session protocol with no concern over legacy apps, including core gnome apps such as gnome-terminal This is not "known upstream issues." This is "This will never work for legacy applications." A warning of some sort in /usr/share/doc/gnome-session directing annoyed users to the guilty parties would have been appreciated. -- gnome session does not start window manager nor restores the previous session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
