I believe this happened before recently - XFCE does not remember

restarting the system - this does not affect the behavior in any
way.

Is anyone else seeing this?
Yes, I am. Both under F19 and F20!

How can I troubleshoot this and what information should I provide
for getting to the root of this?
I have no idea. I've been playing with various of the "usual
suspects", which used to work in the past, but no success on F19/20
so far.

Odd. I do not see this here (with rawhide), nor have I gotten any bugs
on it. ;(

So, can you folks pinpoint about when it started doing that?
(perhaps it's an update that caused it?)

If you pull up prefs-> sessions and startup what do you have checked
there?

If you go to the "Session" tab and click 'save session' does the
~/.cache/session* files get updated?

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your response.

I think this started happening few (maximum - one week) days back. At least, that's when I started noticing. I usually just suspend my laptop. But, when suspend started acting up (another thread on test), I noticed this issue! :)

In my case, I usually have "Prompt on logout" checked. On the logout prompt, the "Save Sessions" options has always been checked. But changing these options seems to have effect based on my testing before I posted my first message to the list.

When I click on "Save Sessions", it does update the files. Restarting the system seems to load **most** programs correctly. Liferea, for example, although open at the time of clicking "Save session", does not start.

Restarting with the manually saved sessions seems to work (with the exception of liferea). When I restarted the system two times after moving the (manual) *session* files to some junk folder (still under ~/.cache/sessions), restores the session - again with the exception of liferea. Thunderbird, Firefox, Thunar open fine.

Will any other information be helpful on this (potential) issue?

Thanks again! :)
