closing Ubuntu task
** Changed in: ubuntu
Status: New => Invalid
** Description changed:
I installed 8.04 LTS server on a system. Then installed ubuntu-desktop
using apt. Installed Nomachine's NX server and connected to it.
The unlock buttons on Users and Groups or Network are greyed out and un-
accessible. Tried running from a term 'sudo users-admin' with the same
results.
Works fine with VNC and NX "Shadow" session however this is not really
acceptable as it means a session has to be running on console first.
I have tried to enable every option in Authorizations to allow the
remote session to have privileges to no avail.
output of dpkg relevant packages:
ii gnome-system-t 2.22.0-0ubuntu Cross-platform configuration utilities for G
ii liboobs-1-4 2.22.0-0ubuntu GObject based interface to system-tools-back
ii policykit 0.7-2ubuntu7 framework for managing administrative polici
ii system-tools-b 2.6.0-0ubuntu7 System Tools to manage computer configuratio
+
+ == Workaround ==
+ If you are using NX from NOMACHINE:
+ - Install package from comment #24
+ - Follow instruction from comment #23
+
+ if you are using FreeNX:
+ - Install package from comment #24
+ - Edit /etc/nxserver/node.conf and change
+ '#COMMAND_START_GNOME=gnome-session'
+ to 'COMMAND_START_GNOME=/usr/bin/nx-session-launcher-suid gnome-session'
