Should not open window for $HOME on abnormal restart
Last modified: 2006-02-18 01:25:34 UTC
Nautilus should not open a window for $HOME when it is restarted due to abnormal termination. I looked a bit into this, and it doesn't look like there's a way for it to tell if it was (re)started upon login, or as the result of being killed. Restarting is fine; it's the "window coming out of nowhere" that Novell's users complained about. The bug in particular was of someone playing with Metacity's "Force Quit" command, and being quite surprised about the $HOME window popping up.
