Bug description:
  I'm using a freshly installed Ubuntu 13.10. As soon as I click on a
  different user I want to switch to in the gearbox menu I get a black
  screen and nothing else is happening. I'm still able to SSH to that
  box and top does not show any process taking 100% CPU. Alt+sysrq+b is
  able to reboot the system. I had no problem like this with Ubuntu
  13.04 on the same computer.

  WORKAROUND: Disable the nvidia card in the BIOS.
