Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-session

Ubuntu adds the 02_add_ubuntu_session.patch to the GNOME session. That
patch contains a .desktop file (see attachment) with the fallback
message shown if a video chipset without 3D support is detected, in
which case we fall back to the 2D session.

The file needs some improvements to be translation-friendly:

* It's got an initial ";" as a delimiter mark. This might confuse translators. 
If there is no other way to do this, at least a translator comment should be 
used (in case intltool supports comments in .desktop files)
* The line break is not escaped, and it appears as a textual "\n" in extracted 
message for translation.

We'd appreciate any ideas on how to fix those. Thanks!
