Actually the logout option was, (and could be), quite useful in a live session, particularly from a "try me" perspective. Users may want to ck. hardware support, some of which is only available from additional drivers and then requires a log out and in to load, The nouveau 3d drivers for nvidia is one clear example, users should be presented with a clearer way to ck. support and be able to preview the unity shell itself. The same may also apply to some wireless hardware
In that regard the log out option with username ubuntu, no password, is a bit more obvious than a 4 key combo than many won't know about. The fact that add. drivers erroneously prompts for a restart when it's not required for the nouveau 3d drivers, while another issue, should not be factor in removing this option. (Honestly, the "try me" experience could use some improvement in this area ** Summary changed: - "Log Out" is unhelpfully available in live session + "Log Out" is unhelpfully unavailable in live session -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/750140 Title: "Log Out" is unhelpfully unavailable in live session -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
