Vidar Hoel, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. In order to allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue, at your earliest convenience, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D ? Please keep in mind the following: 1) The one to test is at the very top line at the top of the page (not the daily folder). 2) The release names are irrelevant. 3) The folder time stamps aren't indicative of when the kernel actually was released upstream. 4) Install instructions are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds .
If testing on your main install would be inconvenient, one may: 1) Install Ubuntu to a different partition and then test this there. 2) Backup, or clone the primary install. If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is the release candidate number if it exists. If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of kernel-bug-exists-upstream. Also, you don't need to apport-collect further unless specifically requested to do so. It is most helpful that after testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, you mark this report Status Confirmed. Lastly, to keep this issue relevant to upstream, please continue to test the latest mainline kernel as it becomes available. Thank you for your help. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-0061 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1652644 Title: Switching users in Ubuntu/Ubuntu Gnome freezes graphics Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This bug was present in Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 LTS with GDM, but did a clean install of Ubutnu 16.04 LTS with Unity and LightDM, and the bug is still present. How to reproduce: 1. Boot the system, wait for LightDM to start and show the Ubuntu Unity greeter. 2. Log in as a user. 3. From the power menu (top right), choose an other user 4. In the password-promt (greeter) for the user, type in the correct password At this point, one of three thing might happen: a- The desktop, desktop icons, Unity-launcher and main menu for the user is loaded. The user can use the system as expected! b- The desktop, desktop icons and Unity-launcher the user is loaded. However, just before the main-menu-bar at the tops loads, the the graphics freezes. I can move the cursor, but that's it. It is not possible to click or do anything with the mouse-cursor. c- Same as (b), but during this process the screen goes complete blank (black), with only the cursor showing (and moving). When (b) or (c), pressing ALT+F1-F6 does not help, the screen just stays the same (except the cursor dispersers). Pressing ALT+F7 afterwards does not bring the cursor back. The system has not frozen. I can SSH to the box and it lives as nothing has happened. It's only effecting the display/graphics. This bug happens about 1/3 of the times I switch the user. Sometimes I can switch to and from users several times (2-5) before this bug comes to life.
