Comment(by dsd):

 OK, we'll use slim for now but I think I'll be reviving olpc-dm in the
 near future (maybe in nicer form) because with both slim and gdm, the
 sugar control panel "restart now" options just land you at a previously-
 unseen login screen...confusing.

 I created a quick sugar control panel extension and a GNOME program using
 zenity to switch between the 2 desktops (its in the olpc-switch-desktop
 package) and included in the build.. let me know what you think and then I
 will finish it off.
