Description Luca Ferretti 2007-06-01 10:07:37 UTC 
As in summary, setting /apps/gnome-screensaver/user_switch_enabled GConf key to false (or deactivating the feature in Pessulus), the screensaver unlock dialog still show "Switch User" button.

This wrong behavior occurs in both GNOME 2.18 (Ubuntu Edgy) and GNOME 2.19 (jhbuild sandbox).

PS should I restart session/gnome-screensaver in order to make it effective?

Hi,

this also happens to me with Ubuntu Feisty (g-s 2.18.1).

There's also a bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/114945

Best regards.
Comment 2 Luca Ferretti 2007-07-11 22:55:48 UTC 
The issue should be in gnome-screensaver-dialog.c

In fact, setting the GConf key to false, there is no "--enable-switch" option on command line used to launch gnome-screensaver-dialog.

I'll investigate.
Comment 3 Whoopie 2007-08-29 21:35:11 UTC 
There's a related bug report #469890.

Could we get this issue fixed for 2.20? It's a regression from 2.16. Thanks in advance!

Should be fixed in trunk.  Can you confirm?  Thanks.
