Re: Save Yourself

Hi Jason,

On Saturday, September 01, 2001, 3:18:55 PM, you babbled something about:

JWE> What is the "Save Yourself" command? I keep getting "no response to the
JWE> Save Yourself command. The program may be slow, stopped, or broken. You

It's the gnome-session manager. The error response is likely due to
something not being "gnome aware".

You have two options...

1. You can try a command line argument similar to --sm-disable which likely
wont help, but sometimes it will. It tells the program to disable the
session manager.

or

2. You could make it start with a script which unsets SESSION_MANAGER from
the environment.

Hope it helps.

Have fun,
