Mostly for the records, I've had a very similar, but more severe problem. Since upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04, not only were the indicators (other than a11y) missing, but I couldn't log in anymore. The correct password was reproducibly rejected as incorrect. After the next restart of lightdm, things worked smoothly, until the next logout. I'd reckon that the same cause that kept the indicators from loading kept lightdm from connecting to its source of authentication (PAM?), but that's highly guesswork.
The new 1.18.2-0ubuntu2 so far seems to have fixed that variant of the problem, too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1605117 Title: Unity greeter indicators don't show on second launch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1605117/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
