After today's (1/28/05) rawhide update, reboot is working.  However, the 
sessions startup programs disappeared.  Put them back in and noticed 
that on the sessions tab the check box for "ask on logout" was checked. 
  However, on logout, am not being asked.  Also, gnome takes a 
significantly longer time to come up now.  Guess that is due to debugging?
