Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
If I login, and choose the 'Log Out username' menu option, and then 'switch
user', my X display disappears, and I get the following message, repeated four
times, with a different value for xx each time:
init: ureadahead-other main process (34xx) terminated with status 4
A large arrow-shaped mouse cursor also appears on the screen, which I
can move with the mouse.
To recover, I can do a ctrl-alt-F1, and then issue the command restart
gdm.
I have found a work-around. After a reboot, if I login, logout, and
then login again, switch-user works flawlessly.
Right now, I am running a kernel from the mainline-ppa (I was requested to in
bug #521260). Uname -a indicates:
2.6.33-999-generic #201002201003 SMP. However, if I boot with
2.6.32-10-generic I see the same behavior.
Let me know what additional information is needed.
