[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 565835] Re: [RV250] User switching breaks X-session(s)

Tried with the radeon.agpmode parameter. I discovered that the default setting on my system is 4. None of the tried settings (-1, 1, 2, 4) did anything to the but I noted that the graphics corruption was different with the -1 setting. I noted a couple of things in my dmesg that I am not sure are

I'm going to have to correct myself a bit here: turning off desktop effects clearly helps, but does not eliminate the problem entirely. A couple of times, what has happened since I disabled Compiz is that the screen will remain black with only the cursor visible. It seems to happen quite
