          Priority: Medium
            Bug ID: 9380

           Summary: Multi-user on XFCE4 only systems (without Gnome
                    dependencies)
        QA Contact: bjt23 at cornell.edu
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Xfce
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: delmir at hotmail.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
           Version: Unspecified
         Component: General
           Product: Xfce4-session

The ability to allow multiple users to log in simultaneously is essential for
home/desktop, but it seems impossible (at least with Debian/Testing) unless
full Gnome desktop is installed as well. Since GDM is no longer available (only
GDM3), any attempt to get anything related to gdmflexiserver working, will
trigger a long tread of dependencies and pretty much request a full gnome 3
install! What a disappointment.

So, would it be possible to implement multi-user, or the ability to run
multiple sessions without relying on Gnome?

Thanks,

Del
