[Bug 741928] Re: In XSession name, parentheses in "Ubuntu (no effects)" mess with sorting in GDM

 

This is no longer an issue because the session names changed at some
point since the bug was reported. I'm marking this as invalid so it
doesn't confuse anybody.

** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Invalid

Title:
  In XSession name, parentheses in "Ubuntu (no effects)" mess with
  sorting in GDM

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-session

  The XSession name in /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop was changed to
  “Ubuntu”, and gnome-failsafe.desktop to “Ubuntu (Safe Mode)”

  This is good :)
  However, GDM sorts the sessions in an ugly way. We end up with a list like this:

  …
  Ubuntu
  Ubuntu Classic
  Ubuntu Classic (No effects)
  Ubuntu (Safe Mode)
  …

  This separates the two Unity sessions and the two “classic” sessions.
