Public bug reported:
In a university computer lab session we disable shutdown, restart, suspend, hibernate, switch user, and lock screen. Some are done with polkit (suspend, hibernate) and then the suspend menuitem is not shown on the session menu. Some are done with dconf e.g. # Show real name (and wider session menu as a result); lab also disable shutdown [com.canonical.indicator.session] show-real-name-on-panel=true suppress-logout-restart-shutdown=true suppress-restart-menuitem=true suppress-shutdown-menuitem=true user-show-menu=false # Quiet login screens [com.canonical.unity-greeter] play-ready-sound=false # Update-notifier [com.ubuntu.update-notifier] no-show-notifications=true # Software installation not possible for normal users [desktop.gnome.unity.lenses.applications] display-available-apps=false # Disable the lock screen & print-setup not on laptops, but in labs [org.gnome.desktop.lockdown] disable-lock-screen=true disable-print-setup=true disable-user-switching=true # Screensaver lockdown in labs [org.gnome.desktop.screensaver] lock-enabled=false user-switch-enabled=false # Logout prompt [org.gnome.SessionManager] logout-prompt=false This works fine except there is no value for suppress-lock-menuitem or suppress-switch-menuitem or suppress-lock-switch-menuitem, and the Lock/Switch User menuitem still appears; even though it is non- functional. Clicking on it blacks out the screen for a second and then shows the desktop again. ** Affects: indicator-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325353 Title: Lock/Switch stay in session menu even if disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-session/+bug/1325353/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
