Bug Description
Binary package hint: gdm
We have Ubuntu Edgy 6.10 installed with the latest updates. We use the LTSP package provided by Ubuntu. However instead of using LDM, I have enabled GDM's XDMCP logins and I've rigged the thin clients to use startx instead of ldm.
This all works great getting logged into the desktop session. We use LDAP authentication also. I am having a problem with authentication with the screensaver password lock only (another issue for another day).
When a user clicks the Red Log off button, then the Green "Log Out" button the screen goes to only the background image. Instead it should return to the GDM XDMCP login screen. This behavior can also be replicated from another machine using:
vncserver :1 -query apps.nelfc.com -geometry 1280x1024 -depth 16
The desktop sets up properly, but once the user selects Log off -> Log Out the background image of the login screen is all that is seen.
Hi Joseph
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the development version of Ubuntu, Hardy Heron?
Thanks in advance.
