Description Carlos Robinson 2012-08-16 10:05:21 UTC

I have Firefox opened on the second workspace. I log out with the tick box to remember session ticked. On restart, firefox opens in the first workspace.

I have updated to "OBS: X11: xfce" and the problem is the same.



Other windows are also improperly restored, like xterms.

The Firefox packages doesn't seem to have session management support so this cannot be expected to work. Apparently it used to have SM support through the now deprecated libgnome and libgnomeui, there's an open bug at mozilla for replacing it with something else: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694570

I cannot reproduce this, xterm is restored fine and on the right screen.
