[Bug 403788] Re: switching back to the previously opened session while compiz is running causes a white screen to appear

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  I have seen something very similar filed here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/269509
  Bascially here's what happens. I log on to my account and start working. Then my roommate will switch to her session using the gnome applet where you can select an other account and her session starts. If we try to log back on my session a white screen with the mouse appears and the only way to use the computer is to go to a ALt+Fx Terminal and restart gdm.
  I'm using a nvidia graphics card and I'm running compiz. This doesn't happen if I deactivate compiz before going to my roommate's session. However there are a number of features in compiz I use a lot and I would like to keep using them.
  I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 and compiz version is 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu8.1.
