[Bug 896375] Re: lightdm does ignore session selection first time non local user is choosen
I have this problem too on Ubuntu 13.04 This is a Samba+Winbind installation. The greeter seems to be quite buggy with these accounts. It also asks me for my password twice. It's very annoying, it should be fixed. I'm using the exact same configuration on a Linux Mint Debian Edition computer and it behaves well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896375 Title: lightdm does ignore session selection first time non local user is choosen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/896375/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm the same behaviour (on two different machines) with accounts from ldap and selecting Gnome in lightdm. On every reboot regardless of the selection in lightdm a Unity (default) session is launched. On subseqent logins the requested Gnome session is launchen.

We have this problem too. Our users typically do not have a home directory until the first time they log in, by the way, with the use of pam_mkhomedir.so to create it, however this behavior is independent of whether the home directory exists or not. We do not see the session chooser widget until you click on a *different* user than the default; then it shows up, for all users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896375 Title: lightdm does ignore session selection first time non local user is choosen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/896375/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
