[Bug 886579] Re: user switching from screen lock freezes system
For me it seems like it's a lot more likely to happen when switching from a user with Terminal open.

I have the same problem.

I still can log in via ssh, and I see Xorg consuming 100% CPU and immune to kill -9 (what the damn?!!!). sudo reboot still works. so hard reset is not really the only way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886579 Title: user switching from screen lock freezes system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/886579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same problem with fglrx, but works fine with opensource radeon driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886579 Title: user switching from screen lock freezes system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/886579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Some more testing: No (this) problem with opensource radeon driver. Problem exists also with gdm (finally got it working when removed automatic login, otherwise hang in checking battery -in desktop-). So it's not lightdm (only) and seems to be related to fglrx. (Also tried with latest version from AMD with same result.) Currently workaround seems to be ctrl-alt Fn (but what Fn?) or logging out when leaving.

[Bug 886579] Re: user switching from screen lock freezes system
OK, it's the same with xcreensaver. Only with opensource driver I can switch to locked session from dm. With fglrx the system freezes. It might be that dm is trying to create a new session even when there is existing one but locked and that's why it hangs? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886579 Title: user switching from screen lock freezes system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/886579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
