Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.6.2-5
Severity: important
- start: Applications -> DesktopPreferences -> Advanced -> Sessions
- check the option "Show splash screen on login"
- check the option "Automatically save changes to session"
- close the session dialog
- start synaptic
(it should first start gksu to ask root passwd)
- while synaptic is running, logout with Actions->logout
- it tells that synaptic does not support saving its setup into the
session. confirm and logout.
- login again
-> Synaptic has been saved in the session. So during the session startup, the gksu dialog box
appears, but is hidden behind the gnome splashscreen. It is invisible
and the session startup is blocked. Depending on the focus settings, it
can be unblocked by hitting Enter, but you have to know it, and it is
not always the case.
