Does GDM provide change of desktop as KDM does?
My scenario: I have KDE and Gnome and Xfce installed. For system start
I have autologin set to start KDE. But when I am in a KDE session I
sometimes logout and use the upcoming KDM to start a Gnome or Xfce
session or even a session on a vt. Does this work with GDM as well? If
so I'm all in.
