[Bug 395861] Re: gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename
This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 1.99.1 --- ubiquity (1.99.1) karmic; urgency=low [ Colin Watson ] * Use dh_lintian. * Restore autologin-disabling code from oem-config, corrected to work with new gdm (LP: #395861). [ Evan Dandrea ] * Add support for ubiquity-slideshow. * Debconf GET returns the default value if no value is set on a question. As an undesirable default is set for netcfg/get_hostname, check the seen flag to see if the value returned by GET was inputted by the user (LP: #401919). * Do not try to run Migration Assistant for the KDE frontend. * Automatic update of included source packages: partman-base 132ubuntu1, partman-target 62ubuntu1. [ Mario Limonciello ] * Divert the ubiquity-gtkui.desktop file when oem-config is installed as oem-config now depends on ubiquity. [ Michael Terry ] * GTK frontend: Remove horizontal separator at bottom, and let timezone map fill its allocated space * GTK frontend: Have all buttons set use_underline to True. LP: #399005 * noninteractive frontend: Don't tell debconf the translated name of the chosen language, but rather the language code. -- Evan Dandrea ev...@ubuntu.com Tue, 21 Jul 2009 17:43:37 +0100 ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed = Fix Released -- gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I fixed this in oem-config, but the autologin-disabling code was lost when oem-config was merged into ubiquity recently.

[Bug 395861] Re: gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename
This is a little off topic and perhaps fodder for another bug, but I had serious gdm problems after this last batch of gdm and x updates because my gdm custom file had an alternate server defined (by myself long ago). I had the X path of /usr/X11R6/bin/X which no longer works (due to a recent change). /usr/X11R6/bin no longer exists. I'm not complaining (although I was confused for a little while). Folks that have used gdm custom configs in this way are sure to run into the same problem. -- gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 395861] Re: gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename
Issue #1: Upgrading from 2.20 to 2.26 leaves you with two configuration files. Pretty confusing I'd say - especially because you have to manually configure GDM since there is no graphical tool (yet?) to do it. Issue #2: Fresh installations just install 'custom.conf', which isn't used (yet?) by GDM. Again, if you want to configure GDM you'd probably put the information into that file rather than creating a new file called 'gdm.conf-custom' (which IS used by GDM). -- gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Indeed upstream uses /etc/gdm/custom.conf, and we have a patch which changes the name to be loaded. We should remove that patch, move an existing gdm.conf-custom to custom.conf during upgrade. ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = In Progress ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) = Martin Pitt (pitti) ** Also affects: casper (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gdm 2.26 custom configuration file: wrong filename https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

After reading the documentation (http://library.gnome.org/admin/gdm/stable/configuration.html.en) it's in fact custom.conf that should be used to config GDM.
