Public bug reported:

Currently, the default lts.conf file in Edubuntu looks like this:

"""
# see http://edubuntu.org/documentation for more information

[default]
  LDM_THEME=edubuntu
  LANG=en_US.UTF-8
  LANGUAGE=en_CA.UTF-8
  LDM_LANGUAGE=en_CA.UTF-8
  LDM_SESSION="gnome-session --session=gnome-fallback"
"""

LDM_SESSION sets the session to gnome-fallback, which is ok for a
default, however, if Unity 2D is installed and a user selects it, the
user will get Gnome Fallback again for subsequent logins.

LTSP needs a lts.conf tag like LDM_DEFAULT_SESSION, where a default
session can be specified, but when a user has something else specified
in .dmrc it would be used instead. This does not currently exist in
LTSP/LDM.

** Affects: ltsp (Ubuntu)
