Empty power-symbol menu on minimal system

[Daniel Richard G.]

I am using LightDM 1.0.6-0ubuntu1.2 on a minimal Oneiric graphical system.

The menu under the power-symbol button at the top-right corner of the greeter screen comes up empty when I click it. There are no Restart/Shutdown/Suspend/Hibernate/etc. items under there, none at all.

Presumably the absence of some other package is causing this, a package that should probably be noted as a Recommends: or Suggests: for lightdm (or possibly lightdm-gtk-greeter).

[Robert Ancell (robert-ancell)]

assuming you're using unity-greeter?

[Daniel Richard G. (skunk)]

Actually, lightdm-gtk-greeter. This is in conjunction with Openbox, so no unity-greeter.

[Daniel Richard G. (skunk)]

(Meant to reassign to lightdm-gtk-greeter, but that's a binary package with lightdm as its source, so back to the latter it went)

[Robert Ancell (robert-ancell)]

OK, will assign it back when we have the GTK greeter package updated.

The power list is now provided by the greeter instead of an indicator. Closing out.
