Title: Vino uses a hard coded string when registering with Avahi (Zeroconf) Status in vino: New Status in vino package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: vino Vino self registers as "$User remote desktop on $hostname" I would like to control this string, but I can not find any method to do so. I can work around this by using an option in avahi to not use dbus, however that doesn't work well, because then my chat service doesn't show up from the Linux box. I currently have the rfb service also defined in /etc/avahi/services/rfb.service using the string (common among my rfb and afp services) so that they show up in a very Mac-fashion in Finder. So I think.... Vino is registering using that string above, but there is no way to either disable that registration or to control the string to use under the vino-preferences (or any other manual way that I can tell) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/vino/+bug/297323/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
