> we stayed on an old version for the reason that they dropped vino- preferences in newer series
If we don't mind staying on an unsupported version, then it's up to us to integrate it into the GUI, and make it start automatically. We could do it by adding stuff to the package to add it to the XFCE menus and update the autostart file to include the XFCE desktop. That sounds messy, though. The vino team recommends creating a new package just for vino- preferences. Could we do that? Do we need the vino team's cooperation to create a new package? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to vino in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/384463 Title: Does not show up in applications menu (XUbuntu) Status in GNOME Remote Desktop: Won't Fix Status in “vino” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: vino 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 (jaunty) /usr/share/applications/vino-preferences.desktop : [Desktop Entry] Name=Remote Desktop Comment=Choose how other users can remotely view your desktop Exec=vino-preferences Icon=preferences-desktop-remote-desktop Terminal=false Type=Application StartupNotify=true Categories=GNOME;GTK;Settings;X-GNOME-NetworkSettings; OnlyShowIn=GNOME; X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=GNOME X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Product=vino X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Component=Preferences Dialog X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Version=2.26.1 X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=vino It's probably caused by the "OnlyShowIn=GNOME;" phrase, because XUbuntu uses Xfce.
