[Bug 352056] [NEW] fast-user-switch-applet crashes system on usage

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: fast-user-switch-applet

My system is Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty fully updated as of Tue Mar 31 00:23:30
UTC

After booting the system and loging in (this is the only current login
and no other programs are running) I click on the fast user switch
applet and choose another user.

The system immediately hangs with a black screen. Ctrl-Alt-Fn does not
work to switch to another virtual terminal and the only thing I can do
is perform a hard reset.

The machine is a new Dell with an Intel Quad Core Q8200 processor, 6GB RAM.
Video card is an ATI Radeon HD 3450.
Monitor is a Dell S2009W. I am using the DVI outputs from the card to the monitor.
I am using the latest fglrx driver (2:8.600-0ubuntu1)

Other information:

new to debugging this type of problem.

Thanks,

Jonathan
