[Bug 725927] Re: System freezes when trying to switch users

 

Hey Andrew,


Thanks for your interest in Ubuntu.

Thanks for testing maverick during its development period.
Unfortunately it looks like this bug report didn't get attention during
the maverick development period.  But I see there's not been more
comments on the bug since the release, which makes me wonder if this is
still an issue for you?

If you've not seen this issue since maverick's release yourself, it may
have been solved by kernel or X or other updates that occurred late in
the release; if so, would you mind please closing the bug for us?  Go to
the URL mentioned in this bug report, click the yellow icon(s) in the
status column and set to 'Fix Released'.

If you no longer have the hardware needed to reproduce the problem, or
otherwise feel the bug no longer needs tracked in Launchpad, you can set
the status to 'Invalid'.

If you are the original reporter and still have this issue, just reply
to this email saying so.  (Or set the bug status to Confirmed.)  If you
are able to re-test this against 11.04 Natty Narwhal (our current
development focus) and find the issue still affects Natty, please also
run 'apport-collect <bug-number>' while running natty, which will add
fresh logs and debug data, and flag it for the Ubuntu-X development team
to look at.


** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  I have an i865, when I try to switch between users, the system appears
  to freeze -- if I switch from the session indicator applet, I just get a
  black screen, if from the screensaver unlock window, that window stays
  visible.
  
  Pressing Alt-SysRq-k usually manages to kill (and restart) the original
  X server, allowing me to log in again.
  
  When I put the hard-disk into a different PC (with an i855) switching
  users works (but xv is broken -- different issue).
