  Hello and pardon for my bad english.
  On xfce4, the button to log with a new user without logout never wants to works.
  It accepts to open a confirmation windows "To you really want to change user?" That's OK.
  Then I press Yes and I've got an error message who says in french : "Impossible to create a new display"
  and in english : "GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.DisplayManager was not provided by any .service files"
