Hello,
I just installed xubuntu 16.04 in virtualbox (xubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64.iso) .

Installed the package
ltsp-server-standalone

configured DHCP and DNS and made a

sudo ltsp-build-client --arch i386

and booted a thin client.

I ran in to this issue:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-1-gnome/+bug/1512002

and fixed it by using this hint of Alkis:

I think that if we change "<allow_inactive>auth_self</allow_inactive>"
to "<allow_inactive>yes</allow_inactive>",
we'll have a temporary workaround to the problem.
The file is /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.accounts.policy

(Thank you very much to Alkis!)


I just want to report a second issue:

There are entries missing in whisker-menue.
(If I log in into the server directly as same user, the entries are visible.)

The missing entries are:
Settings (Einstellungen):
Display (Anzeige)
Workspaces (Arbeitsflächen)
Accessibility (Barrierefreiheit)
Notifications (Benachrichtigungen)
Preferred Applications (Bevorzugte Anwendungen)
Bluetooth Adapters (Bluetoothadapter)
Orage preferences (Einstellungen für Orage)
Settings Editor (Einstellungsbearbeitung)
Appearance (Erscheinungsbild)
Window Manager Tweaks (Feineinstellungen der Fensterverwaltung)
Window Manager(Fensterverwaltung)
Panel (Leiste)
Mouse and Touchpad (Maus und Touchpad)
Desktop (Schreibtisch)
Session and Startup (Sitzung und Startverhalten)
Xfce Panel Switch (Xfce-Leistenschalter)

Accessories (Zubehör):
File Manager (Dateiverwaltung)
Notes (Notizen)
Terminal Emulator (Terminal)

Using MenuLibre doesn't really help, because the changes are made only for the current user
(/home/user/.local/share/applications/).
And the usage is confusing, because you don't see, why the entry doesn't show up before making the changes in MenuLibre.

So!
The corresponding .desktop-files are stored in /usr/share/applications.

If I comment e.g. in exo-file-manager.desktop this line
OnlyShowIn=XFCE;
to
#OnlyShowIn=XFCE;
the File Manager appeares immediately .

Is there an easier way to recover the entries? I think, it has to do with LDM or so not reporting correctly "XFCE" started.

Best Regards
Frank Heuser
