Not much to understand.
When I shutdown, and I have a few gui apps running,
and I reboot, mate no longer restarts what gui apps were running
when I shutdown, that is to say what used to be restarted on
re-login, no longer get restarted on re-login.
I will give it a try & see what it does..
maybe an update killed it? maybe if you turned off the feature then
re-enabled it?
is there a log ? I don't see anything that says autostart in /var/log..
do you see anything in the boot sequence showing it failed?
