Gnome-Terminal looses window sizes with multiple tabs
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
With Gnome-2.0 under Solaris9-X86 and Gnome-2.4 (and earlier) under FreeBSD-5.1, gnome-terminal windows with multiple tabs (xterm sessions) loose their sizing information between Gnome desktop sessions and default to some smaller window in a new session. Single tab/xterm session windows retain their window size between Gnome sessions. It would appear that the "Gnome shut down process" fails to properly record the last size information for multiple-tab gnome-terminal windows, or, the size information is recorded but ignored upon a new Gnome desktop session. Under Gnome-2.0/Solaris9-X86, Metacity is the active window manager. Under Gnome-2.4/FreeBSD-5.1, Sawfish is the active window manager.
