Patch to fix gnome-session-capplet

The problem is from the last commit.  When the selection is changed, the capplet checks if 3 buttons are available in the current view: Edit, Delete and Enable.  If these don't exist, return immediately.

In the session view (1st tab), the Enable button doesn't exist, so the function returns without doing anything.  This patch fixes things up to actually enable the other buttons and deal with the Enable button properly on its own (avoiding the crasher that the commit fixed).
Comment 2 David Planella 2006-05-05 17:34:29 UTC 
After applying the patch to gnome-session 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 on my Ubuntu Dapper system, the buttons seem to be working as expected now.
Comment 3 Baptiste Mille-Mathias 2006-05-10 21:18:21 UTC 
Regarding previous comment, is this fix can be commited for next bugfix release ?
Comment 4 Claudio Saavedra 2006-06-30 11:02:53 UTC 
Patch fixes the bug and looks sane to me. Can we commit it?
