Public bug reported:
Steps to Reproduce:
Have more than one user.
Be logged into one of the users after a restart.
Open additional drivers and change your Nvidia display driver to a different
one (i changed to the open source driver).
Apply the change.
Attempt to "Switch User"
When you try to log in with the second user after entering the password, it
just takes you back to select a user and you can't log in to the other user.
Log back in to the initial user and switch the driver back to the one it was on
before you switched.
Attempt to "Switch User"
It works
Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Intel Core i5-11600K
64GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 1070 (currently on Nvidia 510 Driver)
I discovered this while I was trying to solve a different issue of my
computer not waking from a simple blank screen.
