Public bug reported: I need to disable guest logins for lightdm, and did so by adding the line "allow-guest=false" to /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.
However, this also has the side-effect of disabling the user-switcher in the indicator area of Unity after I log in, which is bad. I want the user-switcher, I just don't want guest accounts enabled. This is true for Oneiric, and presumable for Precise as well. ** Affects: lightdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888714 Title: disabling guest login in lightdm also disables account switcher in unity Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I need to disable guest logins for lightdm, and did so by adding the line "allow-guest=false" to /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.
