Description Alistair McMillan 2010-04-25 21:41:19 UTC
Originally reported at:

Running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS release candidate.

In the Personal File Sharing Manual, which I opened from the Help button on the Personal File Sharing Preferences dialog, section "2.1 Starting gnome-user-share" says...

"The gnome-user-share service is normally started by gnome-session when you log in. You can change this by opening Preferences ▸ Startup Applications in the System menu, and modifying the 'User Sharing' entry in the list of startup programs."

However when I open "Startup Application" there is no 'User Sharing' entry.

I'm assuming this is related to launchpad bug #531502, but I'm not certain.

Here is a link to the Launchpad bug... That should have said 536766, not 531502 which was a duplicate.

The help has now beeng removed, as it lives in the desktop-wide user docs.
