There seems to be some overlap between what firefox does versus what the
windows manager, KDE in my case, does. For some reason the behavior is
different if the session is logged out of, if the computer is forced
shutdown or if firefox is shut down directly.
Of the three, I prefer to do a forced shutdown as firefox restores the best
when I do that. The only thing it doesn't do is put the firefox windows on
the right desktop.
Pretty interesting how far desktop managers and computers have come such
that this is a complaint.

If I have 2 firefox windows open, each with 4 open tabs, and I do<br>
<br>
qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer logout 0 3 3<br>
<br>
I get logged out without any prompts to close any windows/tabs of FF.<br>
<br>
And when I log back in and start FF my windows/tabs are restored.<br>
I also have it set for KDE to start with a blank session on login.<br>
<br>
Oddly?, I don't have "Restore Previous Session" checked as Dave has \
mentioned. This option may only<br> be relevant if one closes FF directly.<br>
