Hello!
I’ve installed Ubuntu Unity from the ISO image and I update it few days ago. It works good but have some problems:
It has double menu bar (at the top menu bar and the app window)
and the user’s full name not appeared at the menu bar even when the options has been checked (II use Indonesian locale)
I can’t reproduce this. Check your settings->appearance if LIM is enabled. Is this happening only for gtk2 apps?
Check if your language pack is installed. It also needs reboot.
The schema path is /apps/indicator-session
Hi, I noticed changing background doesn’t change the background for unity-greeter. Can anyone confirm here?
Yes, that is the case. This has been true for quite some time, it uses the file /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png no matter what one does.
If you replace that file with a new pic then the greeter will use the new pic.
No. That wasn’t the case on bionic several updates ago (or with ubuntu-unity-amd64.iso) at-least for single user.
I think It has something to do with permissions. For example with latest g-c-c 3.28 creates ~/.cache/gnome-control-center/backgrounds/ with root. These settings are also important
gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter draw-user-backgrounds true
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.background active true
But even after fixing permission the issue exists. Though /var/lib/AccountsService/users/ properly shows the backgrounds section.
I have started experiencing this problem since updating gnome components to 3.28
I’ve seen this for quite some time though maybe because I don’t use nautilus to handle desktop was a factor…
Certainly doesn’t work now.
As far as dconf/gsettings for unity-greeter, those are useless from a user standpoint & have been for long time
Changing the background in 17.10 does change the background in lightdm, for the record.
I’ve been putting off upgrading to bionic beta as I’m a bit confused of what to expect in terms of migration from 17.10 and unity, and I use this laptop for work. Will we need to add a PPA, or are you guys testing the packages in the universe repo?
I’m a bit confused because the ISO apparently uses PPA packages but the ones in universe should be tested, yep! 
Could you clarify what you mean?
Sorry I can not access the section I do not see a button for next step
How do you make those window borders? Looks like emerald but I think it is long deprecated???
What he means is that after entering info there is no means to ‘consummate’ it , i.e no connect button appears, enter on keyboard does nothing.
I’ve noticed that the ubuntu-unity-desktop package recommends gnome-mpv, why??
Also ffmpegthumbnailer is recommended, again why??
Other questionable recommends are xterm, geary, xul-ext-firefox
