Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
Booting CD Live Natty 20110201 on IBM Thinkpad T40 ati radeon mobility 7500 gets the message:
"change user session"
however it does NOT change the session, since there are no desktop panels. Just a purple splotch background and a cursor.
The bug is unity did not change to the login session so the correct user session can indeed be chosen.

the dialog is just temporary and the change user session will be removed as the idea was to open gnome-control- center which doesn't support it for now.
