The situation is actually more complex than that. If you're still using Jaunty, this can be checked easily. But in Karmic, you should have noticed, services-admin is not present. Further, cron is now handled via an upstart job, which are not supported ATM by services-admin upstream. So we can't check if the bug is solved, and the situation is likely to change much in Lucid again.
I'd say that if you have already switched to Karmic, we should keep this bug as Confirmed until we can check it again. -- Cannot disable cron from the Services preference pane https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172841 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
