For an LTS version (aimed more at corporate environments) this bug issue is ridiculous, especially if the machine is centrally authenticated through AD or NDS. It would result in a list of EVERY valid login for the company being displayed.
Personally I develop SOE's that include a Ubuntu Linux environment and already have a beta build working where I have avoided this issue using gnome (registry) key settings to avoid the problem but that is not an option to everyone, and I would not expect everyone to be able to look into gconf-editor to find the right key to remove it. Oh and FYI to remove the user list and make it a mandatory setting (so it is always hidden) should be: sudo -u gdm dbus-launch gconftool --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type boolean --set /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true -- No GUI option to disable face browser https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445123 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
