There are two methods;

1. Set up in the Display Manager

or,

2. by using update-altedrnatives

# update-alternatives --config default-xsession.desktop

For example, in my case, here is what I did;

There are 4 choices for the alternative default-xsession.desktop (providing /usr/share/xsessions/default.desktop).

Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ 0 /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop 25 auto mode * 1 /usr/share/xsessions/enlightenment.desktop 20 manual mode 2 /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop 25 manual mode 3 /usr/share/xsessions/icewm-session.desktop 15 manual mode 4 /usr/share/xsessions/plasma5.desktop 25 manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:

I think we are getting lost in translation :-) I'm not talking of choosing gnome, plasma, xfce for my session. I'm talking that, when using gnome, I have a bunch of applications opened. Then I exit. Later, I login again, and I want that bunch of applications opened in my desktop. That is saving the session. The layout of applications and things inside gnome classic. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.4)

Sorry.

What you say you can usually do is set up a gnome session?

No. I ask, how do I save the gnome session? I can save the xfce session, so how do I do it with gnome-classic? - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

You've not installed gnome shell extensions, have you? Your issue will be solved by them.

I have installed the 3 gnome patterns in YaST.
