Hello ainer, thank you for your answer. I need to be more specific: My problem is about selecting the Gnome session (profile) for /usr/bin/gnome-session:
I put the following in lts.conf: --------------------------------------- [default] LDM_SESSION="gnome-session --session=classic-gnome" --------------------------------------- and expect the user to get a classic gnome session (not unity) by default. But the "--session" parameter is not honored, users always get a unity Gnome session by default. This is on natty. Thanks again for help, regards, Rüdger On Tue, Sep 6, 2011 at 9:02 AM, Rainer <r...@tux-edv.de> wrote: > Hello Rüdiger, > > on ubuntu-10.04 with ltsp-xxx-5.x it works fine for me. > You need to setup on ltsp-server "/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf" > with something like: > > --------------------------------------- > [default] > LDM_SESSION="/usr/bin/startkde" > > [00:19:66:cf:0d:11] > LDM_SESSION="" > > > [00:23:8b:ed:51:12] > LDM_SESSION="/usr/bin/gnome-session" > -------------------------------------- > > > > best regards, > rainer > > Am 06.09.2011 03:23, schrieb Dr. Rüdiger Kupper (Kepler-Gymnasium > Freudenstadt): >> Hello, >> >> I cannot find any way of specifying the default session that ldm will >> start upon login: Users **always** get a unity session, unless they >> chose different from the menu **every single time they log in**. >> Neither is their choice remembered next time, nor does any of the >> options work that a have found via google: >> >> - User's ~/.ldm **is not honored** (see Launchpad bug #842254) >> - Setting "LDM_SESSION" in lts.conf (as suggested in bug #770323) **is >> not honored** >> - Setting "LDM_GLOBAL_DMRC=/etc/ltsp/ldm-global-dmrc" in lts.conf and >> creating this file (as suggested here: >> http://rudd-o.com/en/linux-and-free-software/arcana-of-etc-ltsp-ldm-global-dmrc) >> **is not honored** >> >> I have filed a bug on Launchpad (#842261), but perhaps there is some >> secret way of doing it that I have not discovered? >> >> Thank you, help is much appreciated, >> Regards, >> Rüdiger >> > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE! > Finally, a world-class log management solution at an even better > price-free!
