Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx using the open drivers for nvidia
card.
The screen goes black and the only thing responsive is the pointing mouse. This
is the result of logging in into another user and trying to switch back to
previous account. The log screen is available until I enter the password to go
back. A system reboot is the only option.
Ctrl-Alt-Del is possible but no indication that anything is happening until I
see the POST screen again. Trying to log in via a virtual console is not
possible (using Ctrl+Alt+F1 or F2) when screen is black.
