Re: gnome-session ignores the previosly saved session

On date Tuesday 2007-09-18 13:13:37 +0200, Stefano Sabatini gnomed:
Hi to all gnome users,

I'm running gnome 2.18 on Debian Lenny.

I have the following annoying problem with gnome-session (2.18.3):
it seems to save correctly the session file ~/.gnome2/session, but
then when I load another session it overwrites that file and start
with a clean session (metacity as WM, no terminals and other
applications loaded but those in ~/.config/autostart).

~/.xsession-errors doesn't say nothing relevant.

Do you have some suggestion? How could I start to debug the problem?

I didn't find with Google any information regarding this problem.

Just for the archive...

I had setted the --failsafe option in my .xsession file and I failed
to check that...

Regards.
