Hey,
The bug is quite simple. Install Fedora 8 Test 1 with the latest updates + gnome + kde
Change the session during login to KDE and get in KDE. Logout and log back in. you will notice that you than start in GNOME instead of KDE while you start up in KDE (last used session or something like it) but instead you get gnome.
Good luck, Mark

Use fedora-test list to discuss issues and file bug reports in http://bugzilla.redhat.com. Bugs reported here are likely to just get lost in the traffic.

what's the difference between Fedora Test and Fedora Devel?

I own a USB headset, and I've found using it on Fedora to be a tad more hassle than it should. Whenever I plug it in, I have to switch the default soundcard in system-config-soundcard and then close any program using audio so that it will change cards.
How can we improve this?

For Fedora 8, we're switching to PulseAudio which should make this situation nicer. It ships with a program (pavucontrol) for moving active audio stream between audio devices on the fly, for instance (and will reroute streams to a working device if one goes down)

Was hoping the pulse switch would clean things up. I'll reexamine the issue after the switch.

Not much. Fedora Test really just a copy of development on specific dates, but there's a bit more to it than that. Freezes help things become *relatively* stable before tests are distributed.

I think the question may have been "what is the difference between the fedora-devel and fedora-test lists" rather than "what is the difference between rawhide and a test release", but I may be wrong (question was ambiguous).
fedora-devel is a list for discussing fedora development, in particular, but not limited to, the Rawhide tree. The Rawhide tree is where all fedora development happens. At certain points in time, as a release date approaches, a test release is composed from the rawhide tree - a test release is a "snapshot" of the development (rawhide) tree. Issues specific to that test release can/should be discussed on the fedora-test list. To the extent that issues with the test release are relevant to ongoing development, there is a very grey and fuzzy distinction between the lists.
Most often, if you see an issue with a test release it's best to start discussing it on the fedora-test list, and once the problem is understood and diagnosed and a bugzilla report filed, it may then be worth raising it on the fedora-devel list.

i partly agree on that.
Imagine that i install the Test 1 release and notice a problem with it (like this gdm session thing) than it should be posted in the fedora-test-list right?
Now imagine that i install Test 1 and update it with all the updates.. not it becaumes a rawhide so no the topic should be posted in the fedora-devel-list (assuming that the issue is still present).
In my case i did the test 1 install and the full update (so it's basically rawhide) and the issue was still there.. so i think this is the right place to post it before adding it to bugzilla.
Please tell me if i'm right on this or not.

Avoid top posting.
You don't have to post all bugs to either list. It can just be filed in bugzilla. If there is a reason to discuss the bug, post it to the list with the bugzilla report.
In general, bugs in test/development releases should be discussed in fedora-test list rather than here.

@ top posting gmail does that automatically. sorry for that and i will try to avoid it.

That's a strange policy.. i mean.. test releases are snapshots of rawhide so i think they fit best in the rawhide mailing list (which is fedora-devel).

The idea behind it is not clutter this list with discussing breakages in rawhide which can happen quite often and leave room to discuss other general development changes.
fedora-test list is for any issues with testing and not just for test releases.
