[Bug 1518386] [NEW] RDC can't restore to previous session

 

Public bug reported:

I followed the proposal from https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-
session/+bug/1251281 and updated my Ubuntu 14.04 installation with
workarounds for accessing Ubuntu desktop using Windows 7 RDC. Also, I
use xrdp on Ubuntu.

I expect that when I just close Windows 7 RDC, my Ubuntu session is continue running and if I wish I may connect to it later.
However, it does not happen. When I re-launch RDC, a new gnome-session is started and I lose access to all previously launched applications.

I believe it shall be fixed.
