Bug Description

Linux newbie, 3 months. Ubuntu Feisty opens Gedit "unsaved document" on every login. There is nothing in the Sessions startup list to open a new file. Gedit is not even listed.

I have tried all the common-sense fixes, including saving the empty file as both "'unsaved document.txt" and as test.txt, but Gedit continues to open a new empty file on every login (not just on startup.)

I had a notion that this might have been caused by turning off "automatically create backup file" before exiting an unsaved file, but I don't know what to look for, if this is the cause. (View hidden files is turned on.)

Would appreciate it if anyone can provide a clue to this annoying persistent behavior. I've usually found solutions to the big problems. It's the niggling little annoyances like this that really kills me. Argh.

Please close this bug report. I tried "Save Session now," and it apparently fixed the Gedit autostart on login, although the saved session did not list any open documents.
