I do have that blue button, but it invokes the shutdown procedure :-/
Ctl + Alt + Backspace does work for me, since I have the DontZap Serverflag in
my xorg.conf.The C+A+BS 'solution' was actually written in annoyance since I
fell in the logout trap for the gazillianth time.
In another post I also saw the sysprint button mentioned, but I don't know
which key that is.
Right-clicking on the desktop and choosing Logout does have the desired effect,
thanks!
On my brothers system (Kubuntu with KDE 4.2.2) that logout button does what is
supposed to do. Does that mean that this is a Debian packaging problem (and
therefor should be reported on b.d.o) ?
