Hi, the fix for Lucid has been backported to Karmic thanks to Artur
Rona.
You can test the fix by following the instructions in comment #8 of bug
#574262.
It works for me (tested on two machines running Karmic, one upgraded
from Jaunty, another with a fresh Karmic install).

Err, this bug still happens in Karmic, though it's been fixed for Lucid.
It was a regression from Intrepid, where things worked fine.
It would be awesome if you could backport the fix to Karmic (I know time
is tight now with Lucid being near release time, maybe after release).
(Don't know if
I confirm that the bug is fixed in Lucid, I tried on Lucid alpha3.
Thanks a lot for the work.

As Zoltan Tesch indicated, this is not a general Ubuntu bug, but instead
an issue with GDM.

I have just missed the last sentence...
So you have to patch daemon/gdm-simple-slave.c with the following commands:
# cd gdm-2.26/daemon
# patch gdm-simple-slave.c use the path of the attached patch
Recompile and re-install gdm
Maybe it works with newer versions of gdm...

can't catch $USER
I also have this problem on my laptop running Karmic with all updates
available as of November 16th.
If I put those 3 lines in /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default:
echo $USER /tmp/aaa.txt
echo $USERNAME /tmp/aaa.txt
echo $LOGNAME /tmp/aaa.txt
after every login I get this result:
$ cat /tmp/aaa.txt
** Description changed:
Ubuntu Karmic Koala
After a fresh install on some machines and update from Jaunty on another one,
we can't catch $USER $USERNAME $LOGNAME
- from /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default, we get gdm instead of the real name. It
was working since the 7.04 version.
- If in a terminal
14 matches
