[Bug 745502] Re: Netbook Remix, Can't Switch Users

 

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.   This release has reached
Desktop EOL and Netbook Remix was dropped,  so I'm going to close this
bug.  If you have similar issues in the future please do report them.

Title:
  Netbook Remix, Can't Switch Users

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Problem: Ubuntu netbook remix 10.04 is unable to fast switch users. If
  I click on the indicator applet for power/user switching and click on
  a different user, the computer tries to log out, flickers black a few
  times and then comes up with a password prompt for the currently
  logged in user. The same issue happens if I go to "Switch from
  USERID", it does not go to the login screen as expected to select
  another user, instead if flicks black and comes up with a password
  prompt for current user

  Expected: I'm not sure if this is a unity issue or some other issue
  but the expected outcome would be similar to other releases/desktop
  environments. If you click on another user name from the indicator
  applet it should come up with a password prompt for that user, leaving
  the current user logged in as well. Same goes with if you go to switch
  from USERID, this should not log out the current user, only bring up
  the GDM screen to login to another user at the same time.

  Another note is that I can log out of current user and then log in to
  another user, the problem seems to be related to Unity Desktop on
  Ubuntu 10.04 trying to login to multiple users at the same time
  without logging out.

  Appreciate the help in advance. thanks!
