[Bug 88152] Re: Switch user causes lockup
kmax solution fixed for me too for compiz on a nvidia GeForce FX 5200 (driver nvidia-glx-new). If you only have compiz, you don't even need to use beryl-settings. Just uncheck the /apps/compiz/general/screen0/options/detect_refresh_rate key in gconf-editor, or use gconftool -s /apps/compiz/general/screen0/options/detect_refresh_rate -t boolean false -- Switch user causes lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 88152] Re: Switch user causes lockup
I do also get the white screen with this fix, however being that mine is a personal home desktop I don't have screensaver passwords turned on so I hadn't really noticed it that much. I just move the mouse and the white screen goes away and is replaced by the new user's desktop. The one time that it didn't, ctrl-alt-bksp restarted X for me without a problem so at least for me this workaround makes everything quite usable compared to the previous behavior. Also, I haven't noticed any excessive CPU usage as pointed out by chehov. -- Switch user causes lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 88152] Re: Switch user causes lockup
The above solution by kmax really works for me. User switch and text console dont freeze my system now with black screen. But now after switch back to user with beryl, after gdm login WHITE screen appears without any windows :) I guess this is unlock screen.

[Bug 88152] Re: Switch user causes lockup
I was having this problem as well with Feisty and nvidia geforce 6200. Tried both compiz and beryl and with nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new drivers and was always getting the black screen when changing back to an already logged in user. I also got this behavior whenever I ran a game that went to full screen and then exited that game. I tried chehov's fix above in beryl to no luck, then I also tried the following in the beryl-settings - General Options - General Options - Main: 1. Uncheck 'Detect Refresh Rate'. The beryl wiki says that this does not always work and is not recommended, so not sure why it is selected by default. 2. Set 'Refresh Rate' slider to refresh rate being used by X. After this I logged out restarted X and logged back in (simple beryl restart may be enough) and have had no black screens since then. I did a bunch of switching between three sepearte users and never had a problem. I didn't check to see if background users were using cpu up as chehov notes however, I will check into that. -- Switch user causes lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Have: Ubuntu Festy + Beryl with nVidia. Problem: Black screen on second log in after switch users. Fix (for me?..): 1. run beryl-settings - General Options - General Options - Main - uncheck 'Sync To VBlank' 2. use option --force-nvidia for starting beryl (this can setup in beryl-manager) P.S.

[Bug 88152] Re: Switch user causes lockup
I have a similar problem, but only on Feisty with out compiz. My wife tried to log in (switch user) and the screen went black. Nothing came back up. Alt + CTL + F1 didn't take me to the rescue command line. I had to actually use the reset button on the box to reboot the machine. I don't know what logs to quote. I am too much of a noob.

Perhaps this needs to be switched to the nvidia-glx package? I am unable to change the package for the bug for some reason.

I would bet that's a compiz issue, and not a desktop-effects one. Could you run compiz from the terminal, instead of from desktop-effects, and see what happens?

Re: [Bug 88152] Re: Switch user causes lockup
Problem ca also be recreated just by switching to a virtual terminal and back to X. i.e. CTRL+ALT+F1 then CTRL+ALT+F7 will also lock the system.
