switching users... forget it!

[Cody Smith]

As has been said, ctrl+f# gets you to a tty, pure command line. That's not
the way to switch users with a GUI, how you do so is to go to the menu in
KDE, and search for an entry labelled "log out" or something similar (that
varies depending on the menu you use), not all that hard once you know
where to start. 😊

Ralph, next time, instead of scolding users for preconceptions, simply help
them if they don't seem like a troll. If they do seem like a troll, simply
ignore them.
