If your running the gui, (Suse 9.0, kde on my laptop) I needed to loan it to a friend who has a knack for screwing up (Windows) computers; I had my music playing with nohup, I right clicked and locked screen, hit the enter new session button, and logged him in with my Guest account. He typed his paper, saved it to a usb key and walked off happy. When I logged him out it went back to my session.
Is there any elegant way to handle user switching under SuSE?
Under another distro I used runlevel 3 and just launched a second X session with 'startx -- :1'. Is there something similar with runlevel 5 and [kgx]dm?

If your desktop gets out of control easily, you probably have too much stuff on it that doesn't need to be there. Donna Smallin, "Unclutter Your Home"
