Bug Description
Binary package hint: gdm-guest-session
Intrepid Alpha 5 fully updated. i wanted to see how things work with the guest session and i noteiced this bug:
I just opened a guest session using the fast-user-
Then i returned back to my account. Clicking a 3rd time to the guest session resulted in getting a warning about "Multiple Logins found" (see attachment). i choose one of the two guest sessions and it ask me for password to unlock.
Steps to reproduce: i believe the above procedure could be this.
i also this files in my /tmp
if they mean something...
also a question: Does the guest session supposed to be one_guest_session OR multi_guest_session (eg. guest1_session, guest2_session) like happens to me? I read the blueprint but this is not clearly mentioned. Basically i want to understand if multiple guest logins should be there or not.
It's supposed to be just one guest session. If you switch back and forth, you should get back to the currently running one. This is currently a problem somewhere in between fast-user- switch- applet, gdmflexiserver, and gdm-guest-session.
