The general idea was that gnome saves the last resolution the user logged in as so that it will remember their preference - But I'm setting preferences in lts.conf to be machine specific because we have a variety of terminals & monitors, so we don't want gnome to do that. Also, NX honors that gnome setting blindly - if I'm logging in from home using a Windows NX Client session at 1024x768, I can only see a small portion of my normal 1440x900 desktop, and no way to change this. One way around this is to make it so the user can't read or write to the directory where gnome stores the %gconf.xml setting file at logout. I did it by creating a little bash script that will iterate through all the directories in /home and chown/chmod the directory if it exists. I created this file as /etc/cron.daily/gnome_permissions so that it will run every night. I thought perhaps someone else might have run into this problem, hence the description & the small script - it took me awhile to find out where gnome was storing this. Cheers, Michael # 10/9/07 MPB for removing/disabling gnome saving resolution upon logout - fixes NoMachine remote NX screen resolution #! /bin/bash for user in `ls /home` do if [ -d /home/$user/.gconf/desktop/gnome/screen/default/0 ] then chown root.root /home/$user/.gconf/desktop/gnome/screen/default/0; chmod 700 /home/$user/.gconf/desktop/gnome/screen/default/0; fi done </body> </html>
