TommyBoy, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect 549632 ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 546578 black screen after a few user switches ** Package changed: indicator-session (Ubuntu) => xorg (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-session in Ubuntu. Matching subscriptions: dx-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549632 Title: blank screen after user switch in logout menu Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: fast-user-switch-applet This bug is intermittent, seems that it might be related to when networking in enabled in network manager. This is not confirmed. To reproduce: Chhose switch user and then try to login as the user who is already logged in enter password. See if desktop displays. One time out of 10 you will get a blank screen no windows/desktop. However the system is still running because if i do alt+f2 and type orca i can angivate the system blind. Expected: To return to my desktop as before.
