When it works correctly, the following things happen: 1. Having clicked =E2=80=9CLog out=E2=80=9D, GNOME warns me that an applica= tion, Emacs, is still running. I click =E2=80=9CLog out anyway=E2=80=9D, and am logged o= ut. 2. On logging back in, Emacs is run, but desktop complains that another Emacs seems to be using the desktop file. I type =E2=80=9Cy=E2=80=9D to loa= d the desktop file anyway, and everything works fine. When things don=E2=80=99t work, the most common symptom is that Emacs is si= mply not run when I log back in. Occasionally, I get no prompt from GNOME when I log out; when that happens, I believe that Emacs is never run when I log back in. Even in this case, all I have to do is run Emacs and then tell desktop that yes, I do want to load the desktop file, but it just makes for a regular minor annoyance. If I can help diagnose what is going on, I=E2=80=99d be happy to help. I don=E2=80=99t see any mention of improved session support in the plans for either 23.3 or 24; this is a pity, as given the huge amount of modernisation work that has gone on under the hood, it=E2=80=99d be great to have this obvious bit of polish applied, so that the premier FSF editor works smoothly with the premier FSF desktop.
