Open the menu editor (right click on the applications menu) and look in the System Tools section. There should be a "New Login" item there. Just check it to make it appear in the menu. This is provided by the gdm package, so you almost surely have it. I have it in my menu and as far as I can recall that's all I had to do to make it visible. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== Honesty is the best policy, but insanity is a better defense.
