** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: gnome-panel
+ This bug covers two issues: documentation of a changed feature, and the
+ change itself.
+
+ SUMMARY: No way to control logout confirmation or delays!
+
+ Documentation still claims that this is possible:
The "Sessions Preferences" dialog is missing from the
System->Preferences menu.
NOTE: The Sessions Preferences dialog is documented under System->Help and
Support. I can't tell you how to directly bring up that documentation (the
Search feature produces generally unhelpful results...)
But the following sequence finds the documentation on my system:
- System->Help and Support
- Click "Customizing Your Computer" in the Topics column on the left.
- Click "4. Customising other aspects of the desktop"
- Click "Configuring Your Desktop" in topic list on the right
- Click "8.5.2 Sessions Preferences"
- Control-F and search for "confirmation dialog" on the page
+ System->Help and Support
+ Click "Customizing Your Computer" in the Topics column on the left.
+ Click "4. Customising other aspects of the desktop"
+ Click "Configuring Your Desktop" in topic list on the right
+ Click "8.5.2 Sessions Preferences"
+ Control-F and search for "confirmation dialog" on the page
There is no "Sessions" dialog under System->Preferences.
There is a preferences dialog called "Startup Applications" but it does not
contain
the "Session Options" listed in table 8-17 except for "Automatically save
changes".
Note: In ubuntu 9.04 you could disable logout confirmation (and the time
delay) in a Preferenced panel reached by right-clicking the
logout/reboot thingie on the right end of the panel. But in 9.10 there
is no Preferences offered there.
