[Bug 861790] Re: choosing to switch users leads to dark screen, no options

 

Mea culpa. Those logs demonstrate a different bug (I've got too many?) with darkening screen.
After the latest update, when I choose switch user, the screen darkens but now moves on to the login screen as it should. It lands me there ready for the password of  the original user, but without logging me out. ie behaviour is okay. 

Can someone else still reproduce this bug? And provide logs as requested
by Sebastien?

Title:
  choosing to switch users leads to dark screen, no options

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Using Gnome (3?) in 11.10, I choose Switch User from my name in the
  top right. Screen fades to black, except for my name and the time.
  Nothing happens. I press spacebar, and get a chance to log back in.
  So... it's behaving has a screen lock; not an opportunity to switch
  users.
