Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
Steps to repeat:
1. Create two user accounts
2. Log in as one or the other
3. Attempt to switch users by selecting the other user's name or by selecting
'Switch user...' from the power menu.
What happens:
I get a screen with corrupted graphics that does not respond to input
other than showing mouse movement (cursor is a huge block instead of a
pointer). See attached screenshot for more details. If I use Ctrl+Alt+Fx
key kombo I can succesfully switch to any of the text mode terminals,
but will have 2-3 corrupt graphical terminals in range F7-F9. One
terminal will host an unresponsive gnome screensaver dialog, one a blank
screen with an arrow, and one the corrupt graphics or just a blinking
text cursor. The blank screen with the arrow is the working x-session,
because it will take commands. For example I was able to reboot by doing
a Alt+F2, then typing gnome-terminal, then typing sudo reboot and then
typing my password and hitting enter.
What should happen:
I should either get a login screen or the screensaver password dialog for the
other user!
