Hello all,
I have two computers (networked, 'f course) both with the same setup,
gdm + gnome 2.2 latest versions (I apt-get dist-upgrade every day on the
unstable branch).
The way I understood the Chooser is that I'd be able to get the gdm
login screen of PC #2 on PC #1 .

cron) and understood that you have to use (better to do so) the -u option.
