(Simple login/logout scripts are not > the answer).: Have you ever put the script that restores the windows into "Autostart" as well? I don't know whether one has any influence on the sequence in which the programs are started but _if_ they are started in alphabetical order you could name it something like z_script. More on topic: the funny and real mean thing with session-save/-restore in Plasma-wayland (-5.27.11.1) is that _restoring_ a previous session does work fine (perhaps apart from minor differences in window-positions). I can tell because when I log out of a Plasma-X11 session and then log in to a Plasma-wayland session, the previous (Plasma-X11) session is restored almost perfectly, incl. kate, dolphin, whatever. And that's reproducible. However, if one then logs out of the Plasma-wayland session and in to a Plasma-X11 session (or Plasma-wayland session), the previous session is gone, except for non-KDE-apps like Firefox or Thunderbird. So, from what I see here with Plasma-wayland, the real problem is not _restoring_ a session but _saving_ it correctly. And what makes matters worse (somehow) is that the state of non-KDE-apps like Firefox/Thunderbird _is_ saved correctly in ksmserverrc [1]. What's not saved is the state of KDE-apps. But perhaps you know all this already. ;) -- [1] [LegacySession: saved at previous logout] count=0 [LegacySession: saved by user] count=0 [Session: saved at previous logout] clientId1=104c55580000173762586300000023360009 clientId2=104c55580000173870527300000023170111 clientId3=104c55580000173902919800000078330002 count=3 program1=thunderbird program2=firefox program3=pulseaudio restartCommand1=/opt/thunderbird/thunderbird,--sm-client-id,104c55580000173762586300000023360009 restartCommand2=/opt/firefox/firefox,--sm-client-id,104c55580000173870527300000023170111 restartCommand3= [...] -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
