[Bug 34321] Re: should delete the saved session when unmarking automatic session saving option

 

** Description changed:

  I've found that gnome-session doesn't properly handle turning off
  automatic session saving. Here's what I done:
  
  1) Turn on auto_save_session via gconf-editor.
  2) Leave some program open - say, Gnome Terminal.
  3) Reboot. Upon login, Gnome Terminal pops up, which is what is supposed to happen.
- 4) Turn off auto_save_session via gconf-editor. Close all apps. 
+ 4) Turn off auto_save_session via gconf-editor. Close all apps.
  5) Reboot. Upon login, gconf-editor opens, which was closed before rebooting, as well as Nautilus, which wasn't launched at all.
  
  To fix this manually, I have to delete ~/.gnome2/session file after
  turning off automatic session saving.
  
- UPDATE: workaround for jaunty is: rm -R ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-
- session
+ UPDATE: workaround for jaunty and Karmic 10.04 is: rm -R ~/.config
+ /gnome-session/saved-session
