[Dx-packages] [Bug 1350393] Re: Recent accountsservice update causes login window to hang
** Changed in: accountsservice (Ubuntu) Assignee: Robert Ancell (robert-ancell) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to accountsservice in Ubuntu. Matching subscriptions: dx-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1350393 Title: Recent accountsservice update causes login window to hang Status in Light Display Manager: New Status in accountsservice package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi, The recent 0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1 update (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1290785) seems to have removed the UID_MAX check, which could be used to hide users from the login window. In a large organization where many thousands of users are present on our systems, we relied on the UID_MAX setting in /etc/login.defs to prevent accounts-daemon from trying to frob all our accounts. accounts-daemon's performance is so poor, that not having the UID_MAX check causes lightdm to hang for 5-10mins while accounts-daemon tries to look for something in every users home folder. I've already done things like set the login window to require the user to enter their username and password rather than list all users, but the login window still hangs while accounts-daemon is doing its thing. The behavior I see, is: 1) just after boot, there's a black screen, right after the plymouth splash disappears, for 2-3 minutes before lightdm appears 2) You type a username into the username field and press 'Tab' 3) lightdm appears to hang for 5-10mins before the cursor moves to the password field. During this time, I see an accounts-daemon spawn for each user on the system, sequentially (in alphabetical order). Once the last user's accounts-daemon process finishes, the cursor moves to the password field. This not only happens on first boot, but every time a user logs out and the system returns to the login window. Any chance we can have the UID_MAX check back? Or some equivalent? This is causing a serious problem for us! Thanks!

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1325353] Re: Lock/Switch stay in session menu even if disabled
** Changed in: indicator-session Assignee: Robert Ancell (robert-ancell) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: indicator-session (Ubuntu Trusty) Assignee: Robert Ancell (robert-ancell) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-session in Ubuntu. Matching subscriptions: dx-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325353 Title: Lock/Switch stay in session menu even if disabled Status in Session Menu: In Progress Status in indicator-session package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in indicator-session source package in Trusty: In Progress Bug description: [Impact] Session indicator no longer honours the lockdown settings that worked in 12.04 LTS. There are no alternative settings to perform the same behaviour. This functionality is required in large installations where users are not allowed to perfom these actions (e.g. corporate installations / labs / public terminals). [Test Case] 1. Create the file /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/lockdown.gschema.override: [org.gnome.desktop.lockdown] disable-lock-screen=true disable-user-switching=true 2. Reboot 3. Log into a session Expected result: Opening the session indicator should not show any options to lock the screen or switch the user. Observed result: "Lock/Switch Account" and user list shown for installations with more than one user. "Lock" shown for installations with one user. [Regression Potential] Potential for modified options to be shown/hidden incorrectly. Risk reduced by using existing regression tests, adding new test for lockdown and manually testing each case.
