Chaps,
I experience the same bug. In GUI mode, switching users causes lightdm to crash exactly the way anatoly techtonic described this.

Falling back to gdm can not be a solution, lightdm is really nice!

I have 64-bit standard oneiric installation (generic kernel 3.0.0-12) on
a laptop (HP 625, CPU: AMD Athlon II P360 dual core, RAM 4 GiB, hdd 230
GiB).

I hope this bug can be forgot soon.
