[Alkis Georgopoulos <491940@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Since the proposed patch was not accepted by the Ubuntu devs that
maintain gnome-session, nor any alternative component was suggested to
try to patch that instead, we didn't upload a patched gnome-session in
the ts.sch.gr PPA for 12.04, it's only there for 10.04. So no point in
adding the PPA in 12.04, it doesn't help with this problem.

We've developed Epoptes instead, which can shut down the LTSP clients in
any Desktop Environment.

If upstream Gnome and Gnobuntu don't deprecate gnome-fallback, we'll try
to send a patch there, otherwise Gnome will be unusable with LTSP in the
future anyway, at least for thin clients (3d/llvmpipe over the network
is extremely slow, and Unity-2D support was dropped). So maybe LTSP in
the future will propose XFCE/LXDE instead of Gnome.
