Hi Benny,

I already reported an xfce4-session failure that leads to a session
close on Linux when running several xterms.

I just got a discussion on IDE with someone who has the exact same
problem. 

Here come the IRC log for the record. 

Cheers,

<thomas_adam> ~/.xsession-errors report failings...
<ofourdan> sorry...
<ofourdan> what errors?
<thomas_adam> Client 0x3735252653653536738 lost connection to ICE_socket
<thomas_adam> that's repeated for the other xterm (there were two in the session I saved)
<thomas_adam> and then I just get flung back to the VT
<ofourdan> I think I had such a problem already and reported to benny
<ofourdan> no core, just the session dies
<thomas_adam> ah right
<thomas_adam> yup
<thomas_adam> so a work in progress then? :)
<ofourdan> dunno, cuz he didn't take it into account
<ofourdan> afaik
<thomas_adam> oh, :)
<ofourdan> he can't reproduce the problem
<ofourdan> do you run linux.
<ofourdan> what xfree ?
<ofourdan> does it fail with xterm?
<thomas_adam> Debain Unstable
<thomas_adam> XFree86 4.2.1.1
<thomas_adam> If I clear ~/.xfce/session
<thomas_adam> and start from scratch...
<ofourdan> what if you run another type of terminal, like gnome-terminal or rxvt instead of xterm?
<thomas_adam> yeah...
<thomas_adam> if I open say rxvt or xterm or both, and save them...
<thomas_adam> log back in, the session is restored fine....
<ofourdan> no, no, no xterm at all
<thomas_adam> I have tried that....
<thomas_adam> I'm getting to my point :)
<ofourdan> well, I'll try to ping benny agin on that, it's definitely a show stopper
<thomas_adam> one save and one restore of that session works fine...
<thomas_adam> any subsequent restores of that session cause it to keel over and die.
