I use Save Session with "Restore manually saved session" to try for a known desktop configuration on login. I say "try" because in various ways it doesn't completely work, as discussed in other threads. To attempt to get round some of the issues I also have a number of programs in Autostart, but it's never been clear to me what relation if any there is between these two things.

Case in point: if I have program Foo in Autostart, but also save a session with Foo running, is the desktop after a new login expected to show two Foo instances or one (or none because of a conflict). Or is this simply not defined? Or does it depend on Foo itself?

Would like to know the answer for this, too. When I turned restoring session on, all programs from autostart were run when session was restored. I think autostart should be skipped when restoring session.
