Should I trust the "restore sessions" thing to be resolved in the final product or should I advise the users to just use empty sessions? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219020 ------- Comment #6 from dmueller@novell.com 2006-11-08 08:09 MST ------- I've replaced the cube plugin with the plane plugin which was the new addition in the new compiz we ship. You should have the plane effect (which is imho nicer anyway). As you're the second one stumbling over this issue I will try to make restoreSession work. Now that we have the separate combobox this shouldn't be extremely difficult. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
