The design details that will need some improvements are already described in documents like the following. - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Desktop/FastUserSwitching - "Building a Modern Multi-User Desktop" by William Jon McCann http://people.freedesktop.org/~mccann/talks/guadec-multiuser.pdf (581 KB) I would like to point out a few things where I am affected. 1. An identification can be chosen by the tool "fast-user-switch-applet 2.20.0" (http://ignore-your.tv/fusa/) in GNOME. But it is not transferred and reused in the GDM login manager. The user name must be entered again. 2. It seems that I can not open another session for the same user. 3. I am missing the menu entry/button "Switch User" in KDE 3.5.7 on my system. This should be supported by the KDM login manager. 4. I am curious when this feature will work with KDE 4 (Bug #355085). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
