Here on up-to-date Oneiric. I rely on this feature to display remote messages to the logged-in user. On networked Ubuntu stations this is very important to my programs, else the user won't know his workstation will shutdown !! With this bug, my program sees no-one connected and no message can be displayed. Very Sad.
Any workarounds on Oneiric to get the user connected to the graphical session ? (besides re-installing GDM...) I see the priority is low for Oneiric. Is it planned to be fixed or will it be fixed only in Precise ? regards, -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/870297 Title: Lightdm logins not being logged in wtmp Status in Light Display Manager: Confirmed Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “lightdm” source package in Oneiric: Confirmed Status in “lightdm” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: When logged into a graphical session, I get no acknowledgement from who, w or last that I am logged in: $ who $ w 16:48:14 up 1 day, 1:08, 0 users, load average: 0.68, 0.83, 0.84 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT last only reports tty logins, not graphical logins.
