Alexander,

I experienced what you describe above when upgrading from old gdm to new
gdm, *but* when I later upgraded from one package version of new gdm to
a slightly newer one, it killed my session outright.


Either way, even triggering the "user switch" screen in the middle of a
jaunty->karmic upgrade would be very bad user experience.

Max.
