Does anyone know anything about this? I've been driven to using gnome instead of KDE, which I've been using for maybe 5 years because the upgrade from KDE-3 to KDE-4 made it impossible for me to use it (maybe this will change in the next year of so). KDE-3 saves the desktop layout, running processes, etc. whenever a session ends. I have been looking for a way to do this in Gnome; it looks like something in the menu: System->Personal->Sessions would do the job. But this doesn't seem to be working. In fact ...-> Startup Programs seems to require that the "Power Manager" should be run at startup, but I don't see it on either panel. Also the "Setup" function seems to be undocumented for the 2.22 level of Gnome.
