           Summary: gdm does not offer "back to login screen when session
                    does not exist"
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

         Component: gdm

when your session does not exist, for example if you are sharing the same home
directory on a laptop between gentoo, ubuntu, and fedora core 3 and used xfce on
the other distro but do not have it in ubuntu, gdm will offer two choices: "make
default" and "use the backup session for this session only". It should offer a
button that says "abort, go back to login screen, pick another session that does
exist, and then log in again"
