Bug Description
Binary package hint: gdm
GDM on my netbook running 10.10 (Unity) is not ordering the users by their login frequency.
Querying ck-history --frequent shows:
user A: 476
user B: 2
Yet user B tops the list. User A also has a lower UID and is before user B in the alphabet, so I haven't a clue what priority GDM is using.

I'm not sure whether my bug is exactly the same. I'm running the ZaReason Terra HD which came with Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.10 installed. When I see the login screen on startup, most of the time I am the first one listed. Every now and then (seemingly random), though, the account Guest User (a passwordless account I created) is moved to top.
