Description Matthias Clasen 2013-11-15 20:50:18 UTC
We ship a mechanism for customers to run named sessions by choosing 'custom session' from the session chooser on the login screen.

In RHEL7, we need to allow saved sessions to be either classic or gnome.

Here is how we should go about it:

1) When saving a session, write the 'classic' marker file to the saved session directory
2) In gnome-session-custom-session, look for the file ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session/classic'. If it exists, pass --session gnome-classic to gnome-session

let's just dupe this with bug 1031182 since the bugs are pretty closely related.
