Description Radek Lat 2010-07-19 09:33:09 UTC

Description of problem:
In gnome-session-properties after checking "Automatically remember running applications" then logging out, logging in again and unchecking the same checkbox, it still remembers last running applications when it should not.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-session-2.28.0-14.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Running following test cases:
1. https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/case/43562/?from_plan=2145
2. https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/case/43563/?from_plan=2145
  
Actual results:
Session applications remembered in case 1 will still start after case 2.

Expected results:
None of the session applications remembered in case 1 should start after case 2.

is it remembing the running applications from this logout? or the running applications from the last logout that the box was checked?

It is remembering running applications from the last logout that the box was checked.

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-07-20 14:17:09 UTC

Okay, that's actually "by design".  

We could potentially add a "Forget Previously Saved Applications" button next to "Remember Currently Running Applications", but not without customer demand.
