Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-7
Severity: important
Once again I tried to switch from GDM 2 to GDM 3. This time the
problem is this: I just can not find a way to choose different session
during login. And I can not find any mention about it from documents.
Is it possibe to enable some kind of session chooser.
I use LXDE most of the time, but sometimes I try out other sessions,
for example Gnome and KDE.
