GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 140423
Window sizes not restored properly when loading a session.
Last modified: 2009-01-19 20:21:13 UTC
Background: I have two 1600x1200 screens (non-xinerama). I'm not marking this as multihead though, since I don't think it should be relevant. Problem: I have, on the first screen, two Galeon browser windows that are vertically maximized and take half the horizontal space. I also have an Evolution window that matches one of the browser windows. The session is saved as such (well, there are a few gnome-terminals also on both screens, but they come out fine). However, when I log in, the galeon windows end up not vertically maximized, but rather there's a free space about the size of a window title bar below the windows. Also, the Evolution window is a bit larger than it should be in both dimensions. When copying the saved galeon session to .galeon/session_crashed.xml, galeon restores the session with the windows maximized, so I don't think the problem is there. Also Evolution windows are sized just fine when launched from the launch button in panel (dragged from the menu). This seemed to work with Sawfish before I upgraded to gnome 2.6.
Reporter: Can you tell us whether you are still having similar problems?
