Fedora 15 Multi user machine log in security bug

Hi,

I think there is a bug with the user set up in Fedora 15. I have just
introduced my wife as a second, basic user. Now, when she is logged off, I
am logged on, I put the machine in suspend mode then wake it up, it crashes
on wake up. I power down, power up and it puts me straight to her desktop,
no log in, nothing. I have to log her out, and log back in as me.
Also, if I log out from normal use, shut down and then reboot, the same
thing happens.

To me this suggests somewhere in the code for the user accounts we have a
problem? Or is there a real simple fix?

I am running the 64 bit core Fedora 15, with just two users.and few if any
updates.

I'm brand new to this list, and also relatively new to Linux (3 months - a
real baby compared to the original old hands!) so if you need a stack trace
or something to read off what is happening, please could you give clear
instructions as to how to run it?

Thank you very much for your help
Kind Regards,
Tim
