The "black screen" problem is still alive! (Core i3 530 with integrated graphics) Reliable workaround: 1. For every user on the machine repeat step 2, 3 and 4 2. go to "System", "Settings", "Keyboard Shortcuts" 3. add a shortcut name: e.g. "Fix black screen" command: "xgamma -gamma 1.0" 4. assign a combination: e.g. "Crtl+Esc" Whenever you expirience the problem, do the following: - type in the password of the user you want to switch to - apply the keyboard shortcut (in my case "Crtl+Esc") That already saved me at least a hunderd times. Good luck! -- Switch User freezes at blank screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
