Title:
LightDM doesn't handle Lock Screen or Switch Session for GNOME Shell
3.5
Status in GNOME Shell:
New
Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
With GNOME Shell 3.5.90, gnome-shell depends on GDM or at least some
GDM methods for the lock screen and user switching functionality. With
GDM installed and using LightDM, it's possible to log into GNOME
Shell. The Switch Session button doesn't do anything. If you lock the
screen, you won't be able to unlock it.
It would be great if LightDM could support this so we don't have to
try to find an ugly hack to work around it. It would need to work in
at least unity-greeter, but it would be cool if the KDE & GTK greeters
would work too as they're being shipped by Kubuntu & Xubuntu.
