Bug#842170: gnome: When I suspend then unsuspend, open windows move desktop or disappear

Package: gnome
Version: 1:3.14+3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I find the behaviour of Gnome on suspending then unsuspending in Debian Jessie unpredictable.  Any of the following may happen on reboot:

- open windows all migrate to a single desktop
- all bar a few windows disappear; those left are mostly off-screen
  to the right
- (on fresh boot as well) top RH menu options after Battery and Bluetooth
  may or may not appear (eg network / VPN).  If VPN does appear, it has a
  random subset of possible connections shown
- screen is blank until I press CTRL-F8 (on my Dell laptop this is the key
  combo to switch from external monitor to internal)

I don't have system logs as (until just now) journalctl was not using persistent storage for logs.  It should be now.

I appreciate this is a rather vague report - the problem is that this is an
intermittent and inconsistent problem to reproduce - different every time.

Thanks,

William
