Description James Hunt 2006-05-26 07:26:09 UTC
Description of problem:

Selecting "Switch User"->"Start New Session" pops up the warning about switching
between sessions using CTRL+ALT+F<n>, but clicking "Start New Session" on that
window then does nowt. Manually doing a CTRL+ALT+F8 shows no new session.
