Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2011-09-07 01:57:52 UTC 
The session chooser is only supposed to show up if there is more than one session available.  Occasionally, I've noticed that it shows up when there is only one xsession file installed, though.

I haven't quite figured out what circumstances this happens in, but should investigate.

The session list is supposed to hide itself if

1) the user is already logged in
2) there is only one xsession file installed

There was a bug causing 2) not to work.
This commit fixes that bug.

(gnome bugzilla gave a 500 error and git-bz posted the patch twice so obsoleting one of them)
