[Bug 1497621] [NEW] Unity display corrupted on login or switch user

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have a new install of 15.04.  I am using lightdm with a unity desktop
(default).  I have two users on my system.  Often when I log in or
switch user unity or lightdm (I don't know enough to understand which
one) will freeze on a corrupted display.  The launcher icons and the
launcher will be overwritten with some pseudo-random pattern.  the bar
across the top of the display will also be corrupted.  Sometimes the
display has both my desktop and the unity-login greeter mixed.  I
usually can't type or do alt-f2 for several seconds.  At some point
(usually several seconds later) the display will appear to "reset,"
sometimes once, sometimes several times and eventually will settle on an
uncorrupted, usable screen.  If I switch user 10 times this will happen
on 8 of them.
