DESCRIPTION: The window position should be remembered from the previous time you ran apprunner, rather than always starting up at 6??x4??. This adds about 5 seconds to my startup time, since the current size is quite small. Since this now works on Windows 95, I'm filing this as a platform parity bug. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1 start apprunner 2 change the window size 3 exit 4 start it again 5 open a new window (File | New Navigator Window) ACTUAL RESULTS: every new window created is 6??x4?? EXPECTED RESULTS: after 4, the first window should be the same size as after 2 after 5, the new window should be the same size as after 2 DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON: * Linux, apprunner, 1999-10-30-08-M11 WORKS CORRECTLY ON: * Windows, apprunner, 1999-10-30-08-M11 (I didn't test step 5, and I don't want to reboot just to test it. Step 4 works.)

Mozilla always starts on the first virtual console of Photon. It needs to start on the current virtual console. Where do I hack in and chage the starting position of Mozilla?

The underlying reason for this is that the window size is being fetched and stored incorrectly. Marking dependent on 14513.

how is this not a dupe of bug 14513 ? they may have started out differently but they are the same now. Rather than going back and forth btw both (bug 14513 was just reopened) I'm just going to dupe this one. REOPENING to dupe
