Similar problems occur with any mounted volume. For example, as user A, insert a USB stick. With default settings, a Nautilus window will open on A's desktop (good); but Nautilus will also try and open a window for the new volume on B's desktop (bad), resulting in a dialog box reporting the lack of permissions. Plug in a camera: same thing -- eg, f-spot opens on both users' desktops to import the photos.
(When using compiz with an nvidia driver, these windows on B's desktop appear white when B returns to his or her session; but that is a different issue.) Somehow, the system must know who is sitting at the keyboard and which session is active. Windows should not be opened on the desktops belonging to other sessions. -- Inserting blank CD opens window on all users' desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217713 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
