Greetings,
Xfce gives you the option to save your session on logout.
In earlier versions, all of my tabbed sessions of Gedit and
Gnome-Terminal would be restored.
Now, with an F21 setup, only Firefox comes up restored. At best,
Gedit
is opened, but in a new document setting.
Any pointers on whether or not this can be changed so that Gedit
and
Gnome-Terminal sessions are restored?
Or is this a new, undocumented feature?
IIRC it's dependent on your desktop manager. I'm using lightdm on
F20
gdm on F21 and the save sessions seem to work fine for me, but I've
not
done anything really tricky (I tend to close editors and such
before I
log out).
Try some other desktop manager and see if that does it.
I think that some of my answer lies here: this was reported with the
release of F19:
Fedora 19, Gnome 3, and Session Management

Since various projects and thoughts seem to breach the 24/7 cycle,
sometimes going on for years, I end up keeping multiple-sessions open as
reminder.
Eventually, it will end.

You're using Xfce, and having trouble with two Gnome programs.
Have you tried using Leafpad and xfce4-terminal and see if they do
what you want? (I understand that you might prefer the two
programs that you're currently using, but if nothing else, you can
see if it's related to what DE the programs were written for.)
The issue, while unconfirmed, seems to be specific to gnome applications
such as gedit and gnome-terminal.
I've tried xfce-terminal just to compare it's user-friendliness with
gnome-terminal. WHile both have the same base functionality, The latter is
better, imho.
I've never used leafpad, but I'll try on your suggestion.
Much thanks.
Max
