When I needed to login to another session I used 'Switch User' and after that I could witch between the open sessions by pressing [ctrl][alt][f7] or [ctrl][alt][f8] and so on... With KDE / FC9 I cant even login to a second session because I do not get a login menu when selecting 'Leave' and then 'Switch User' in the KDE menu. Instead I get a run dialog with the title 'Switch User' but no other suggestion as how to select another session or user. 627153 1 christophe 2008-07-20 14:57:57 +0000 *** Bug 167024 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 627232 2 rfe.gen 2008-07-20 19:10:56 +0000 Can someone please explain what the consequences of changing Severity from 'normal' to 'wishlist' are ??? Or maybe even better... send me a link to information on the subject of bug classification that is used here. Thank you. 627327 3 chanika 2008-07-20 23:39:11 +0000 I don't think there are any consequences, per se. it just helps developers to sort the reports. I think wishlist items are unlikely to be worked on during a feature freeze (which we won't have for a few months)... but even that isn't always the case ;) 633870 4 martin 2008-08-05 05:54:07 +0000 with fc9 and KDE 4.1.0 "switch user" simply locks the current user out, exactly like "lock". I can confirm, that "switch user" does not provide a dialog with which you can start a new session how it used to work in kde 3.5. I really miss this feature. 633871 5 aseigo 2008-08-05 05:56:49 +0000 and yet i use this feature at least weekly, sometimes several times a week. i know this works in trunk due to that; please report this upstream. 636154 6 martin 2008-08-11 02:11:33 +0000 I opened a bug for fedora 9 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458616 636173 7 rdieter 2008-08-11 06:41:44 +0000 works fine here too (... I cannot reproduce the problem anyway) 636369 8 martin 2008-08-11 19:50:08 +0000 problem solved Solution: make sure you use kdm and NOT gdm ;) 636423 9 rfe.gen 2008-08-11 22:11:55 +0000 I see, This seems to solve the problem and thus indeed WORKSFORME as well. Rik 636438 10 rfe.gen 2008-08-11 23:06:12 +0000 Forgot to say thanks to Martin, For I now also (think I) understand now what reporting upstream means... |-) 1037682 11 kevin.kofler 2010-10-27 18:58:56 +0000 This got implemented for GDM in kdebase-workspace trunk (for 4.6) now, see bug 186198. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 186198 ***
