i can confirm this bug with ubuntu 7.10 gutsy and ATI fglrx-driver. I have a pentium 4 system with an ATI Radeon 9600. Disabling Desktop-Effects, CompizFusion or the above fixes didn't work for me. Still get a Black Screen after Logout/Switch User and can only do a reset. (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace/Ctrl-Alt-F1 doesn't work) Changing driver to "ati"/"radeon" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf fixes it, so it must be fglrx.
fglrxinfo prints this: display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: ATI RADEON 9600 Series OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6) my kernel-version is: Linux 2.6.22-14-generic with GNOME 2.20.1 Hope somebody can fix this. -- log out or switch user results in crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107115 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
