[Bug 1405349] Re: switching to activated guest session causes screen blank

 

The appropriate part from lightdm.log seems to be:
[+148.35s] WARNING: Error using VT_WAITACTIVE 7 on /dev/console: Interrupted system call

i.e. We requested the VT switch but perhaps it didn't occur?

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I switch to activated guest session, but the screen remains blank. I have to wake it up with keyboard/mouse action.

  How to reproduce:
  1. login with your account normally.
  2. switch to guest session from the panel menu "Switch Account... -> Guest Session", now it's under guest session and the display is normal.
  3. switch back to your user account, then switch to guest session again.
  4. The screen remains blank.

  I can't reproduce this issue under Precise.
  Vivid snapshot 22-Mar-2015 can also reproduce this issue.
