Session management refers to &tde;'s ability to save the state of applications and windows when you log out of &tde; and restore them when you log back in. Confirm logout If this option is checked, when logging out, &tde; will display a dialog asking for confirmation. In this dialog you can also choose whether you want to restore your current session when you login the next time. Offer shutdown options If this option is checked, &tde; will offer a choice of actions during logout. These include simply ending the current session (the action performed if shutdown options are not enabled) turning off the computer, or restarting the computer. You may choose one of three options on what should happen when you log into &tde;: Restore previous session If this option is checked, &tde; will save your current session's state when you logout. &tde; will restore your session on the next login, so you can continue to work with a desktop just like you left it. Restore manually saved session Instead of restoring &tde; to the state it was when you logged out last, it will be restored to a specific state that you have saved manually. Start with an empty session If you choose this option, &tde; will never restore sessions that it has saved. You can configure what should happen by default when you log out of &tde;. These options are not possible on all operating systems, and some of them may not appear unless you are using &tdm; as your login manager. The options available are self explanatory, if you are in doubt, leave the default settings. They are: End current session (this is the default) Turn off computer Restart computer Finally, you can enter a colon (:) separated list of applications that should not be saved in sessions, and therefore won't be started when restoring a session. For example xterm:konsole.
