Thanks, folks, for getting this into action. Meanwhile, here's a problem related to Eugene's backport:
Eugene provides a backport of gnome-session 3.12, but this package has a bug: the "gnome-session-quit" command is broken. This prevents that users from logging out of the session. The problem is described here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1344528#p1344528 (see comment 4: the logout dialog was removed with gnome-session 3.12). So Eugenes fix currently introduces another bug. Looks we need to choose: Have acceleration but no logout, or the other way round :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251281 Title: gnome-flashback (metacity) fails to start without hardware acceleration, cloud/remote environments (Forwarded-X/XRDP/VNC/NX/X2GO/Chromoting) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1251281/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
