It doesn't work (I tried it). AFAIK Plasma fires all the Autostart scripts concurrently and I don't see a way to make the Restore script wait until everything else is up, or at least has mapped its window(s). Maybe there's some systemd magic that would do it. > 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).

But perhaps you know all this already. ;) That is interesting. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
