Details
Description:Used to have an icon in the system tools menu
for 'new login in nested window'. With gnome 2.20.1 this
seems to have disappeared.
Additional info: GDM installed, I have Xnest and gdmflexiserver in path, etc...desktop file missing? * package version(s) * config and/or log files etc. Reproducible with empty homedir. Steps to reproduce:Install gnome 2.20.1 packages. |
This task depends upon
- defaults.conf specifies an empty Xnest= line
- gdmflexiserver-xnest.desktop specifies an empty TryExec line
When both are fixed this bug should not appear anymore. Question is, in defaults.conf, will we use Xnest or will we use Xephyr? I would go for Xephyr since that one has support for all the nice feature available in Xorg itself.
"gdmflexiserver -d --xnest" gives me :
