[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1247189] Re: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user
I am not using any nvidia hardware and I have this exact same issue. I believe the bug is within lightdm. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247189 Title: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1247189/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Christopher, before I attach all of that, I want to note, that I enabled prerelease updates on my system, and it pulled in a new version of kernel, lightdm, and xorg. I have not had the issue happen since then, so I am going to assume that this bug was fixed upstream. If it happens again, I will update this bug with more detail. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247189 Title: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1247189/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Nevermind, I just had it happen again. This is really frustrating, but apport noticed it as a crash within Xorg. I will provide additional info and attach it to THIS bug report.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1247189] Re: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user
OK, so this bug is now a security issue, seeing as I just typed my system password in an IRC chat window. When this bug just happened to me, I dropped to TTY1, logged in, did sudo service lightdm restart, typed password again, and when I got back into my session, it turns out since I had quassel foregrounded it ALSO put my username and passwords there.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1247189] Re: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user
Christopher, please stop sending me private emails asking me to file a separate bug, especially when you say things like: "I'm personally not inclined to respond to non-original reporters of a given bug report, despite them insisting on it's a duplicate, as they tend not to respect how it's making it harder to triage the report." WHAT? So what is the point of "Bug Heat", and why would I start that counter over on a new bug report? I'm sorry, that makes no sense to me. Also, I have checked some activity on other bugs you have commented on, with the same canned answers. Triage all the bugs you want, but stop turning the triage into a nightmare for the bug reporter, to the point where they give up and close the bug out of sheer aggravation from YOU. Have you even read the Code of Conduct that you keep linking to? With that said. Let me quote the original bug report: "I'm using a freshly installed Ubuntu 13.10. As soon as I click on a different user I want to switch to in the gearbox menu I get a black screen and nothing else is happening. I'm still able to SSH to that box and top does not show any process taking 100% CPU. Alt+sysrq+b is able to reboot the system. I had no problem like this with Ubuntu 13.04 on the same computer." THAT IS THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENING TO ME. I will NOT file another bug on this, as this one is perfectly fine. I will, however, install Ubuntu on several different machines that I have laying around, just to see if it happens on multiple hardware types, and even in virtual machines. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247189 Title: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1247189/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Maarten, This actually makes lots of sense. I had it happen again last night, and after checking logs, it was indeed Xorg losing control of direct rendering. I can move the mouse around the black screen, and watch the cursor change as it goes over links, and various other things, and I can still type in whatever window was active I just can't see any of it. Even dropping to TTY1, the mouse cursor is still visible, and keystrokes still get dumped to the active window, even though I dropped to another tty. Also I am on Intel hardware. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247189 Title: [13.10] Ubuntu freezes completely when switching user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1247189/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
