An error message is shown when I login using Gnome.

The message:
Metacity (as gdm)
These windows do not support "save current setup" and will have to be restarted manually next time you log in.
Class: Login Window, Window: Gdm-simple-greeter

Version: Mageia alpha 1 with Gnome (no change after installing updates).

No, it's not fixed; the fix mentioned in comment 17 in the above report "Make greeter login window be a dock. Fixes metacity complaining about session management."

was reverted upstream as it caused more serious bugs c.f. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587732#c8

So, still not fixed in gtm-2.32.0.... :/
Comment 9 Philippe Makowski 2011-03-07 18:49:23 CET
hum, bad but Fedora 14 have 2.32 and I don't have the problem
Comment 10 Michael Scherer 2011-03-14 21:19:39 CET
Still present in alpha 2

Comment 11 Michael Scherer 2011-03-14 21:29:46 CET
On f14, there is a patch on metacity
Comment 12 Michael Scherer 2011-03-14 21:36:30 CET
After looking, there is and no-lame-dialog.patch ( that was reverted ).
And  Should-set-RestartStyleHint-to-RestartIfRunning-when.patch

I think http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=metacity.git;a=blob;f=Should-set-RestartStyleHint-to-RestartIfRunning-when.patch;h=c674d13261168d2d769b66a4122baedfb7cd5fd6;hb=refs/heads/f14/master

should do the trick.
