Description lorenzo 2003-05-11 17:03:23 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1a)
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages
OS:          Linux

I'm used to have an xconsole started from gdm, and would like to use session management. The problem is the xconsole is
root's, and if I save the session, on next kwin startup the running xconsole gets killed and kde does try to start another xconsole
unable to read console messages.

I think the sensible solution would be to do as windowmaker does, and let the user tell ksmserver some app (window) should be excluded from session management.
