Lock down log out in the login session (1.40 KB, patch)

Description Matthias Clasen 2011-09-08 12:56:09 UTC
It never makes sense to offer log out when you are not logged in,
and setting this lockdown key is an easy way to make gnome-sessions
'fail whale' dialog more appropriate for the login session. With
this key set, it will just say

A problem has occurred and the system can't recover.
Please contact a system administrator
