I tend to shut down my laptop with browser windows still open. On other computers, after powering up again I normally get my tabs opened back as I left them, but on arch I always seem to get the "Your browser doesn't seem to have shut down properly" message and have to push 'restore'.
Killing the process with 'kill -9' or the 'x' in the top right works.
I've tried chromium and firefox, both do this.
Could someone recommend me where to put a script that would run before all other shutdown/restart scripts that would pkill the browsers?

/etc/rc.shutdown

Make sure you are actually quiting the browsers, not just closing the windows. In chromium that's "shift-ctrl-q", I don't remember what it is in Firefox. Otherwise the browser seems to keep running as a process and this causes problems (at least in Chrome and Firefox).

Hm. Turns out kill -9 and pkill mess with it too.
EDIT:
Turns out the googe-chrome package doesn't do this. I'll go with that.
