previous session was being saved and then restored upon the next login,
due to a setting in one little obscure check-box. That was back in FC5
or 6. But, I haven't seen it on by default since though. I'm sure I
pushed the red button not fully understanding what it would do. I have
my moments. :) Ric
changed it to Gnome and made that the default and now it's
positively zippy! Thanks!
