Bug Description
Hi. I really don't have experience about D.M.
So, i can not be sure if this problem is more related with Lightdm or with upstart or any other thing.
More users reported a problem here:
http://
Currently i think that cinnamon is not supported on lightdm, possible this occurs because Cinnamon let to use gnome as a way to acquire the session.
Cinnamon 2.0.14 XDG_CURRENT_
Cinnamon 2.2.16 XDG_CURRENT_
Sorry if it's too long, but i can only share what i know...
In the case of ubuntu 14.04 the cinnamon session depend of ConsoleKit and a DBus iface... The result it's:
WARNING **: Failed to get session for pid: DBus.Error:
Also if I try to use GetCurrentSession, directly from terminal I get this fail....
dbus-send --system --dest=
--type=method_call --print-reply --reply-
/org/freedeskto
org.freedesktop
Error org.freedesktop
Plase see: https:/
When try to test what happen this appear to be a problem of permission.
When i execute with root permission:
dbus-send --system --dest=
--type=method_call --print-reply --reply-
/org/freedeskto
org.freedesktop
Response:
object path "/org/freedeskt
Finally, i see that XDG_SESSION_COOKIE is not set from normal user and it's set as root user.
So, the problem appear to be in the session start. Consolekit does not start, it's not called.
Thanks for any fix or suggestion...
Are you running both ConsoleKit and logind?
