You can start several sessions simultaniously - I frankly don't know whether KDE would even allow to start a session for a new user without locking the current one. The only problem would be if you're short on resources and/or have no swap device and/or a process of one user starts running wild. (Might be interesting to stop all processes of the non-current user when switching sessions?) But under normal conditions, it's no problem. > 1) One definitely needs commit 3442664609284ea201d50f6da27222c706a75c8e on > kwin. yupp. > Can it be expected to apply over stable kwin 5.3.1? The patch can be used functionally - whether you'll run into an unresolvable patch conflict (patch not knowing how to apply this, you'll have to help), I can't say for sure (but don't expect so) > 2) Furthermore, one needs to patch QT5 with: > 0001-Forward-QWidget-windowRole-to-QPlatformWindow.patch Not necessarily - the *really* important thing in this context is SM_CLIENT_ID (but it certainly won't hurt) > from https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-46310.

This will still NOT prevent Qt5 clients from not restarting at all (they somehow randomly fail to be recorded by the sessionmanager, likely killing themselves on the "session about to end" signal or whatever) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446865 Title: kwin does not remember on which desktop to open windows on session start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdebase-workspace/+bug/1446865/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
