Error messages when logging into session "OAFIID TomboyApplet"
Last modified: 2009-05-08 12:49:17 UTC
Please describe the problem: I recently upgraded from Ubuntu Intrepid to Jaunty, and also changed the "automatically save session on logging out" setting: It is now enabled, previously it was not. I used Tomboy before, having added it to my top panel with the normal "add to panel" command. When I log in again, there comes a msg box complaining about errors starting the Tomboy applet. The message box contains the "OAFIID TomboyApplet" string but not much other useful information. However, after some trial and error I realized that the tomboy applet actually gets started twice: 1) by the gnome panel 2) by the gnome session manager (There is a saved session entry in the .config/gnome-session/saved-session directory). Only if I change the option in "startup programs" back to not automatically save the session on logging out and manually remove the file in .config/gnome-session/saved-session which contains the tomboy startup info, tomboy will start without complaining during the next login. So, I think to solve this problem, tomboy must avoid being saved by the gnome session manager, since it will be started by the panel anyway. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
