[Bug 431147] Re: Cannot Unlock System Administration Login Screen
It seems that after a dist-upgrade to 10.10, the gdmsetup dialog, while can be unlocked via admin password, still has only a reduced number of options displayed. ** Attachment added: Screenshot of the dialog https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/431147/+attachment/170/+files/Screenshot-Login%20Screen%20Settings.png -- Cannot Unlock System Administration Login Screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/431147 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

#35 might be on to something. When the problem occurred, the default session was Failsafe Gnome. After changing session to Gnome the problem ended. (But, if I recall correctly, not immediately after). Anyway, I do not experience this behavior/problem anymore. (Re #49: I'll comment in bug 509798 that the problem might not be accidentally disabling that service, but accidentally logging in in failsafe session.) -- Cannot Unlock System Administration Login Screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/431147 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 431147] Re: Cannot Unlock System Administration Login Screen
I have the same problem in both users-admin and gdmsetup, though my
problem may not be related to this bug. I accidentally deleted my
primary user's admin privildges and had to add them back using gpasswd
in a recovery session. This is when the problem started. I also lost all
notification area applet functionality, despite regaining admin/root
priviliedges. Perhaps there is a missing group membership that I haven't
yet added back.

[Bug 431147] Re: Cannot Unlock System Administration Login Screen
I have this problem as well. I am using 9.10 with full updates applied as of the time of this writing. I seem to have no problem authenticating any other actions. I have even tried creating a test account, but that didn't change anything either. In addition, I tried the old xhost + and sudo su - to root and, with DISPLAY set to :0.0 got the same exact results (incomplete setting list). This is a fresh 9.10 install with full patches. About the only thing that even comes to mind with regards to using the startup programs feature was that when I first tried Ubuntu, I fired up gkrellm and used the option to remember the current running applications. Perhaps related? And yes, I am using the local console to login only for this report/testing. I will attach the information that you were asking for from some of the threads here in the report.txt file I have attached.

Me too. Nothing happens when klicking the Unlock button. Behaviour: When gdmsetup is started from the SystemAdministration menu, locally, the button becomes gray when pressed and resumes normal appearance when released. When gdmsetup is started from a terminal with ssh X11 forwarding, the button becomes gray when pressed and resumes normal appearance when released. When started with sudo gdmsetup and gksu gdmsetup from a terminal with ssh X11 forwarding, the button becomes gray when pressed and stays gray/inactive when released. User-admin behaviour, for reference: When users-admin is started from a terminal with ssh X11 forwarding, the unlock button is already gray and a text (in swedish that translates to) Not authorized to make changes. When users-admin is started with sudo users-admin there is no unlock button, and operations are allowed. Ubuntu 9.10 was installed from scratch but /home was copied from a 9.04 system.

@ Neal and David - Neither of you have polkit-gnome-authentication- agent-1 running in your session, which is required for authentication to work.

All programs listed in Startup Applications are enabled, including a PolicyKit Authentication Agent. (On a side note. The volume control in the panel has disappeared and the systray (that used to have at least a network icon) is now empty. Maybe the gdmsetup problem is a consequence of something else gone wrong.)

I am experiencing this bug as well in both gdmsetup, and users-admin
after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10. The users-admin unlock button is
greyed and says:

If I run gksu users-admin it works fine...

michael-dance - your issue is different to the issue described by neal- landry.

Happy to provide any further information as it is important for me to be able to setup auto-login. I also disagree with Sebastien's comment on 2009-11-01 at this being only a corner case affecting one person. I wouldn't imagine the Login Screen dialog to be an often-accessed feature by most average users and therefore the bug would not get as much exposure as, say, a bug in Firefox. -- Cannot Unlock System Administration Login Screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/431147 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

It only affects gdmsetup from my experience. Although I am not sure what causes it, something blocks it from opening the org.freedesktop.systemtoolsbackends.set authentication window.

Thank you for your bug report. Could you use apport to report bugs or at least specify the gdm package version you are using?

@seb128 - Are you able to reproduce this bug in Karmic or are you able to unlock gdm-setup? the package gdm is currently at version 2.27.90-0ubuntu7 I would have liked to use apport to report this bug, but it doesn't seem to work for me in this case.
