** Changed in: lightdm
       Status: Fix Released => Fix Committed

** Description changed:

- When logged into a graphical session, I get no acknowledgement from who,
- w or last that I am logged in:
+ Impact:
+ Systems using LightDM have no entries in the utmp record for logins, so tools 
like 'w' and 'who' do not show LightDM sessions.
  
- $ who
- $ w
- 16:48:14 up 1 day,  1:08,  0 users,  load average: 0.68, 0.83, 0.84
- USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
+ Testcase:
+ 1. Start Ubuntu system
+ 2. Log into session
+ 3. Open gnome-terminal
+ 4. Run 'who' command
+ Expected result:
+ You should see TWO entries (the first is from LightDM, the second is from 
gnome-terminal):
+ <username>  tty7   YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
+ <username>  pts/0  YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM (:0)
+ Observed result:
+ You see only one entry:
+ <username>  pts/0  YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM (:0)
  
- last only reports tty logins, not graphical logins.
