The current /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-setup.sh does get along with an existing guest user, it just checks if it is a system user and that it doesn't have a pre-existing home dir outside of /tmp/. I cannot replicate this.
In such a situation, can you please give me the output of sudo sh -ex /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-setup.sh ? ** Changed in: gdm-guest-session (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Incomplete -- Unable to start guest session if a user named guest exists https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292533 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
