Depending on your distro's configuration, you can usually switch user just by jumping back to the console that GDM is running on or to the console the other user is active on using Ctrl+Alt+F* combinations, (try F6, F7, etc until you find it). To logout, I would think all you need to do is send a kill signal to the gnome-session process and it would jump right on that for you :) Send it a nice signal first to give it a change to do it's shutdown thing. |
