Same here, except I sometimes have a nagging worry about whether everything is going to be properly cleaned up. I mean, is it actually specified somewhere that Ctrl-Alt-Bspace is *exactly* the same as doing a desktop logout? Also, I've had situations where even Ctrl-Alt-Bspace doesn't work. Either X is frozen or the machine is so slow it isn't responding (it can be hard to tell which). Happened to me yesterday in fact when I tried the desktop switcher in KDE 4.2. Of course the standard logout isn't going to work either in this case, but it's frustrating that this still happens even after a gazillion years of X development. poc -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
