> 1) Login sound. Many users want to turn it off. Right, it will be off by default next cycle and a checkbox to turn it on or off will be added to the sound configuration dialog which is the dialog most user look for a such setting > 2) Guest accounts or dedicated accounts.

This account shall never > - log into Ubuntu One or even try to (ubuntuone-launch.desktop) > - display update notifications (update-notifier.desktop) > - search for drivers (jockey-gtk.desktop) >- do any social networking (gwibber.desktop, telepathy-indicator.desktop) The guest accounts example don't work, the user directory for those is recreated at each session.... We are not saying that there is no usecase to disable services, but services should be configuration where it makes sense (the ubuntuone-control-panel for u1, jockey starts only once if your configuration doesn't change, im clients don't do anything if you don't have any account configuration, update-notifier can be tweaked from dconf-editor) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/803917 Title: Do not appear in Startup Applications Status in Jockey driver manager: Fix Committed Status in Ubuntu One Client: Fix Released Status in “gconf” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-bluetooth” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-user-share” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “libcanberra” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “ubuntuone-client” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “vino” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xdg-user-dirs-gtk” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “zeitgeist-datahub” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: It was decided at the last UDS (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-startup- applications) to hide all applications that appear in "Startup Applications" by default. Each should have NoDisplay=true added to its .desktop file. This is an Ubuntu-only change as upstream GNOME has previously rejected our patch for supporting the NoDisplay key in autostart files.
