I did not have a session file since I never saved one and disabled the
automatic save feature in gnome-session-settings. And that also seems to
be the problem, -2 refuses to start when no session file is present.
I just saved one with -1 and now -2 also starts.
However -2 should also work without a session file.
Interestingly with the created session file the splash screen doesn't
disappear anymore (only when left clicked. This did not happen without a
session file in -1)
