Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

Everytime I restart Kubuntu Karmic 9.10 my session restore does not work. It reports that there's a problem and the internet session cannot be restored. Selecting "Restore" works fine. This is independent of the tabs and links that were opened before exiting firefox.

Installed plugins:
. apt-get install flashplugin-installer
. Add-ons: Adblock Plus 1.1.1; Delicious Bookmarks

I don't think this error message is relevant, though. My wife gets the problem as well, and she never uses Launchpad, or greasemonkey.

This is still valid on Ubuntu 12.04 with current Firefox 30.0

Every time I shut down Ubunut, Firefix thinks there was a problem with the session. On next restart, it will not automatically restore the session. Instead, it will ask so restore the session.
