[Virgil Brummond]

Binary package hint: jwm

When I install jwm in Hardy Beta it does not appear in my sessions menu on the gdm so I can not boot into it.

Hi, yep I can confirm this bug, same problem in Xbuntu too.

[Szabó András (salix-mailbox-deactivatedaccount)]

Confirmed in Xubuntu 8.04 (final).

[Chilli Bob (robbaskerville-hotmail)]

Same in Ubuntu Hardy final.

The package installs /usr/share/jwm/xsessions/Jwm.desktop, but it should instead install /usr/share/xsessions/Jwm.desktop.

This problem is present in Intrepid Ibex too.

hi you can use this workaround sudo cp /usr/share/jwm/xsessions/Jwm.desktop /usr/share/xsessions/
at reboot you have jwm in login session
