Public bug reported: In Ubuntu I regularly use the user switching feature which basically spawns multiple X Servers. This has never been a problem until Lucid.
Now when I switch from one user to another, sometimes the X server being switched to freezes and takes up 100% CPU on one CPU core. Then I have to ssh into the machine and kill -9 the frozen X server. Suspending and Resumes improves the chance greatly (almost 100%) to reproduce the bug: 1) log in one user 2) use the gnome panel applet (indicator-applet-session) to log in another user. 3) suspend/resume 4) switch back to the first user Although I filed a bug in nvidia-graphics-drivers, I doubt that they are the only source of the problem, since the same driver worked fine with karmic. ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [lucid regression] Using multiple X sessions makes X server freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524309 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
