--- Comment #7 from Grant M.
And if you put back the saved_state file, it still works? How did you check saved_state was empty? Do you remember the permissions of the file?
Not quite sure what you mean by that. Basically, after trying the things stated earlier, I just moved the saved_state aside, and rebooted and logged back in. The saved_state file was recreated as part of the login process. The 'broken' file had the same exact ownership and permissions as the newly-created one, except the newly-created one wasn't empty. Here are the perms: drwx------ 2 grant users 4096 2008-06-12 07:07 . drwxr-xr-x 52 grant users 4096 2008-06-11 16:37 .. -rwx------ 1 grant users 70264 2008-06-12 07:07 saved_state -rwx------ 1 grant users 0 2008-06-02 07:17 saved_state.bust -rw-r--r-- 1 grant users 0 2008-06-10 14:18 test That last file, 'test' shows as identical when diff'd against the .bust one. It was created using "cat /dev/null > ./test". I did that just to make sure it was a truly empty file, and there wasn't something weird with either the filesystem, or the file.
