Multiple users have logged into my 14.04 desktop system. When I want to logout or lock my screen, the drop down menu shows a long list of many of the users who have logged in. I would really like to remove that user history from the drop down menu.

This list of users is NOT the same list of users from the lightdm greeter, this is the list of users you see in the drop down menu, once you are logged in. I have already set the lightdm greeter to not show the login history. That does not affect the lock / switch user menu drop down. Hope I made myself more clear?

Any suggestions would be a huge smile on my face.

Thanks

Enter this in the terminal: 

gsettings set com.canonical.indicator.session user-show-menu false

And then reboot the machine. (In the other thread they suggest to use unity --replace & but it's always better to reboot).
