[Bug 837246] Re: User name shown as [Invalid UTF-8] in live session
Upgraded. michael@saturn:~$ dpkg -s indicator-session|grep Version Version: 0.3.7.1-0ubuntu1.1 The package manager version sets /etc/login.defs to 500; but it is not needed on my system. I had more than 6 users defined on this system -- and the new version is working just fine with /etc/login.defs set to 1000. It's all fixed as far as I can see.

[Bug 874194] Re: indicator-session shows name as "[Invalid UTF-8]" for some users (depending on UIDMIN?)
Sebastien, Thanks for asking! As requested, I did the following: sudo apt-get install d-feet from Dash, I called up d-feet, used the File menu -> Connect to System Bus - go to org.freedesktop.org.Accounts on the left - select their path corresponding to their UID on the right, i.e User1000 (mine was 1101) - go to Properties, select "RealName" and get the values of those lines? I had 2 lines for String RealName = Michael on each line; both the same. michael@saturn:~$ dpkg -l accountsservice Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name VersionDescription +++-==-==- ii accountsservic 0.6.14-1git1 query and manipulate user account informatio I use local users.

MIN_UID fix/workaround did not work for me. I set mine to 500, too, but my user ID is 1101.

[Bug 837246] Re: User name shown as [Invalid UTF-8] in live session
- User name shown as [Invalid UTF-8] in live session (LP: #837246) I upgraded today from 11.04 to 11.10 and the [Invalid UTF-8] shows up rather than the User_account_name. This is an issue for all user accounts. I haven't changed any user IDs or group IDs, nor have I added or removed or changed users or user group memberships. I didn't do anything but upgrade to 11.04 to 11.10. My installation is completely up to date and there's nothing left to do in the way of installing new updates -- so this bug isn't fixed. It's very much alive and kicking for me. $ dpkg -s indicator-session|grep Version Version: 0.3.6-0ubuntu2 $ env | grep LANG LANG=en_US.UTF-8 similar notes on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-session/+bug/834137 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/837246 Title: User name shown as [Invalid UTF-8] in live session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/837246/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
