## Re: some refracta-7 (wheezy) beta1 bugs

I don't know if this is actually a bug or if this is normal behavior since browsers have their own session restore features anyway. I also played with midori and I get similar behavior with it as I do with iceweasel.

On a vanilla wheezy install, sessions have had no problem restoring the 5 windows I always have open to keep persistent cPanel horde and web stats logins available.
One other thing . . . the light to the left of the caps lock is always on in refracta. It's a bit annoying visually.

If I leave iceweasel open when I log out (with the save session box checked) the browser does not open automatically when I log in. Meanwhile, gthumb and geany do automatically open. When I open the browser manually, it goes to the pages it was on when I logged out.
If I kill the desktop (stop lightdm) and then login, iceweasel still does not open, but when I open it, it asks which pages I want to restore.
About that annoying light...

Code:
  `.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/keyboards.xml: <property name="Numlock" type="bool" value="true"/>`

Change "true" to "false" I guess. There might be a gui setting for that somewhere.

I checked the sessions settings on the wheezy install that was working and found this:

Code:
  `Priority 50
  PID 2883
  Program firefox-bin
  Restart Style if running`

That setting is not present in the refracta sessions or the minimal install that I built up. Some piece is missing on those two installs.
But another problem. After the latest updates to refracta which included one for iceweasel IIRC, iceweasel won't even start. Instead it sends me to the lightdm login screen. I purged and reinstalled. Tried another user. Upgraded to v.16 and it still won't start. Why would it keep sending me to login instead of launching? Other apps launch just fine. FWIW, Vanilla wheezy install upgraded iceweasel without a problem.
Until I can get iceweasel working, I won't be using refracta much . . . bummer.

No idea what the iceweasel problem is about. Try starting it from terminal, and see if you get any error messages.

Tried that already. As soon as I hit enter the screen goes black and I'm back to the lightdm login screen. I'm gonna dig into some logs today.

I had to reinstall because of that weird iceweasel thing. Taking better notes on setting things up. Got to gksu . . . AFAICT it doesn't remember passwords even though the box is checked unless gnome-keyring is installed.

Ah, thanks for that. I was wondering why it wouldn't save the password. Gnome-keyring is added and will be in beta2.
