When you logout or restart, you are *not* continuing the same processes. Presumably you have configured the KDE session manager to reopen the same apps as when you left the session. These are new processes which attempt to continue where they left off, but they are being executed from the pristine binaries and will not conserve transitory environment state (unless they are written to do that). > >> in each of the terminals, i have at least 2 tabs open. in each > >> terminal, when in right most tab, everything works fine. for some > >> reason, that i did not bother to figure out why, it does not work > >> in other tabs. > > > > Can't think of a reason for that offhand, other than some kind of > > script bug. > > 'script bug'?

I disagree. I invite you to list the process IDs of the running apps in one of your sessions, close the session without restarting the system, start a new session, then list the PIDs again. The two lists will show different PIDs. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
