Description of problem: If you select 'Restart GDM' on Fedora login screen, it reboots Fedora. It should restart GDM, not restart OS. Pressing CTRL+ALT+Backspace works as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 10 with and without the latest updates. gdm-2.24.0-12.fc10. How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora 10 normally. Apply the latest updates if you wish. 2. On the login screen press 'Restart GDM' button. 3. The OS reboots. Actual results: The Fedora reboot. Expected results: Only the GDM should reboot. Additional info:
Not sure if ctrl-alt-backspace work either because if I change display manager and then press ctrl-alt-backspace to try restart X, the display manager doesn't change. You have to reboot OS to take effect another display manager.
There is no restart-gdm button, there is only a restart-your-system button (next to a suspend-your-system button and a shutdown-your-system button)
Yes, true - when you choose system English language, you can see buttons Suspend - Restart - Shutdown But when you switch to Finnish, the English 'Restart'-button is translated 'Käynnistä GDM uudelleen" (in english: Restart GDM), which is wrong - it should be 'Käynnistä järjestelmä uudelleen'. Seems this is a localization bug.
This seems to be fixed in F11, hence closing the bug.
