From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20040323 Galeon/1.3.7 Description of problem: On all version since FC2T3 when I first started using it, session saving does not work for it Rhythmbox. If the app is running on logout, and the current setup is saved, when the user logs back in, rhythmbox is not restarted as it presumably should be? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run Rhythmbox 2. Log out, saving session 3. Log back in Actual Results: Rhythmbox doesn't start up :( Expected Results: Expect Rhythmbox to start up Additional info:
I've just tried this again, and noticed that in fact the Rhythmbox icon does appear in the splash screen on login. Perhaps it's starting up, but not succeeding as GNOME is not yet ready enough?

Rhythmbox's session management support is a bit broken. This bug is already filed upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128495
Actually, this works fine for me. I created a new user, started rhythmbox, saved the session, and logged out and logged back in, and Rhythmbox came up. Can someone still reproduce this?
I recently upgraded to the Fedora development packages, and this problem is fixed there. I guess it's been sorted somewhere along the way.
