no (wrong) xsession default for new users in lightdm
Last modified: 2013-03-26 09:14:40 CET
Logon on lightdm fails for new users if no session is selected (and no default is set). unity then tries to start /usr/share/xsessions/ubuntu.desktop which does not exist.
unity-greeter's default session can be configured via lightdm.conf -> user-session (lightdm/sessiondefault) but the greeter also respects the users last session. Every session package univention-ucc-session-rdp univention-ucc-session-ucc univention-ucc-session-firefox univention-ucc-session-xenapp univention-ucc-lxde now sets lightdm/sessiondefault to its own session file (with ?). Session packages order in example/ucc-desktop.cfg and example/ucc-thinclient.cfg has been changed and lightdm/sessiondefault has been added to both files (LXDE for thinclient and UCC for desktop).
Session packages set themselfes as default session if no other session has been set -> OK lightdm/sessiondefault sets user-session in /etc/lightdm.conf -> OK defaultsession is set in example thin(LXDE)/desktop(UCC) configuration file -> OK If no other session is chosen: First login on thinclient image starts LXDE as session -> OK First login on desktop image starts UCC as session -> OK unity-greeter remembers last user session -> OK -> Verified
