The problem with this is that when the user is at the gdm screen, he can't login after the message that unity is not working with his setup. There is no user icon selection in the gdm screen. He must write "ubuntu" himself. There is no indication that "ubuntu" is the username of the live cd user. Also he doesn't know the password. I tried several passwords my self, such as ubuntu/live/guest without luck. So I had to switch to a virtual terminal, set the password to something I know with 'sudo passwd ubuntu' and get back to the gdm screen and login. A new Ubuntu user won't be able to workaround it like that.

This is not the right place to report this, but I'm not sure in what component to Ubuntu I should file it. Or even maybe I'm doing something wrong during the gdm login? Please advice.

Using Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.10 RC Live CD.

Thanks
