Remembering sessions

[Ray Parrish]

Hello,

I noticed that in Preferences, Sessions there is a tab which has a check 
box for remembering programs at log off, and a remember currently 
running programs button.

Last night before shutting down I clicked the remember currently running 
programs button to save my session. When I logged on this morning I 
didn't get what I expected.

Sessions only started Firefox, missing Thunderbird which I also wanted 
started, which was running when I clicked the remember button. It also 
started a second copy of Kalarm which I normally start from a call in 
the Sessions Startup Programs entries.

That seems a bit buggy to me. I would think it would check to see if a 
program was already in the Startup Programs, and not start a second copy.

I'm looking at the Sessions help and it claims there is an Add Session 
button on the Session Options tab, but no button exists on that tab 
other than the "Remember Currently Running Programs" button. Help also 
claims that there are several other settings on that tab which I do not 
find.

I'm on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy.

Later, Ray Parrish
