Description Roman v. Gemmeren 2012-01-09 16:01:04 UTC 
Hi,

i was just testing the latest lightdm-1.0.6-r3 and noticed my dbus notify-send scripts were failing.

With the current version of lightdm tools like w, who, finger etc... don't show the logged in X11 users (only the console-logins).


Reproducible: Always

I presume this bug needs to be reported upstream
Comment 2 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-04 20:07:15 UTC 
Is this bug present in 1.1.4?
Comment 3 Roman v. Gemmeren 2012-03-09 18:05:51 UTC 
sorry for the delay, problem still persists:

1 strowi@Seth:~> w
 19:04:48 up 3 min,  1 user,  load average: 0,81, 0,95, 0,43
USER     TTY        LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
strowi   tty1      19:03   54.00s  0.11s  0.10s -zsh

only showing the console-login but not the lightdm-session... is it possible that this might be pam-related?
Comment 4 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-09 18:08:09 UTC 
Could be. Lets see what they think.
Comment 5 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-17 00:34:44 UTC 
In the mean time, could you report this upstream?
Comment 6 Roman v. Gemmeren 2012-03-18 12:38:03 UTC

Well, this is not an urgent bug so there is no real need to release a new revbump of lightdm. I will wait one week for upstream to release a new version otherwise I will apply the patch.

upstream lightdm bug fix released
