The patch in 312017 (comment 9) does not apply cleanly I'll try to get it to apply this weekend.

Hours of searching has turned up little else.

This bug is quite important to those of us trying to implement multi-user workstations with the flexibility of multiple logged-in users. We can't expect users to know about CTL-ALT-Fx commands in order to get access to a login prompt.

Is it known whether this bug affects ALL 10.04 systems with GDM? If the answer is yes, does not not deserve this bug to have an importance higher than "Low"?
