How do I choose the default guest session?

My computer has an ATI card, which supports 3D, but doesn't refresh the screen properly.

This is because I use the classic session on 11.04 instead of Unity. That's OK.

But when I start a Guest Session, the Unity-based session starts automatically, because this are the default settings for new users.

So, is there any way to change the session to start by default?

(So the classical GNOME desktop gets launched instead of Unity)

Changing the default is done through Login Screen Settings. At the bottom there is a drop-down list that lets you set the default. I'm not sure if this affects guest sessions too. Let me try it out and I'll update this post.

edit: Yeah it changes the guest session too. I guess it would've been obvious since you need to unlock it with admin privs. For some reason it doesn't work until a restart though.
