Here is a script to automate the fix:

-------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

if [ $(whoami) = "root" ] ; then
if !( grep -E ‘/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id=”desktop-logout”’ /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default ) then
cp -f /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default.bak
sed ‘/^exit 0/i /usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id=”desktop-logout”’ /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default.bak > /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default
echo
echo Logout sound fix applied!
echo
else
echo
echo Logout sound fix already applied!
echo Nothin done.
echo
fi
else
echo
echo Sorry, you must be root to run this script
echo
exit 1
fi
exit 0

After the installation my starnet dictionary have no sound and my logout has no sound to
how do I uninstall the above fix??

Average human beings only use 10% of their brains potentials. In your case, though, less than 0.5%. How pitiful.

Read the article from the very beginning, and remove everything that you added.

It is called experiment, making Ubuntu better.There is no harm to make logout/shutdown have a sound.But how to solve the GPG issue NO_PUBKEY DBF1CA1622460E60 ???

Yeah right… You wanted to make Ubuntu better when did not even have an idea how to get rid of such a simple error message. Do you have a better joke?

Hi Gerry, I try to used your code by add the statement before exit 0 with

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play –id=”desktop-logout” –description=”GNOME Logout”

I try with gnome-terminal to run this statement and don’t get any sound.

BUT when I try to do the syntax with

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id=”desktop-logout” --description=”GNOME Logout”

It returned a sound.

BUT either this syntax I don’t hear anything when I logout from system.

Anybody can help ???

for the logout sound

add the following line before ‘exit 0? in
/etc/gdm/PostSession/Default

code:

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id=”desktop-logout” --description=”GNOME Logout”

Hi. I have follow your step-by-step instruction above. It seem that the libcanberra need the GPG key. How to get the key ?

Secondly, I don’t hear anything when I am logout from system, even I have read the instruction twice. Please help…

Thanks…
