Excellent, thanks for testing. Since we now have this version of -fglrx
in Karmic we can consider this bug sorted.

Bryce,
Your version of the driver seems to work fine on my Radeon 3200.
Since I had installed the driver I have observed no X hangs when switching user
after some inactivity (the PC was online whole week).
Thanks!
Only dehibernation still hangs X, but that's a story for another bug...

Bryce,
I've just installed the driver from the location you've provided. ATI CC says
it's version 8.62.4 - is it the correct one?
I'll send feedback in a few days.

I've posted a new version of the -fglrx driver to our xorg-edgers PPA,
would you mind testing it either on Jaunty or Karmic and see if it
resolves this bug?
Get fglrx 8.620 here:

I tend to think that GDM has a problem, because if I use KDM I can
logout and the screen doesn't goes blank, this problem appears only with
GDM. And as I tested this issue was there in previous Ubuntu versions
too.

I confirm on Radeon 3200 with fglrx and compiz on Jaunty.
Switching user after longer time of computer inactivity sometimes (30%
reproducibility?) renders screen black.
There is a slight difference because I can see the mouse cursor and I can
switch to text console and kill -9 compiz.real
Still applies to Jaunty (kernel 2.6.28-11). I'm now using open source
driver (rather than fglrx) and it occurs on the second user switch.

Hi guys,
I have almost the same problem. I say almost because as I read above this

Hi,
This is not precisely the reply that you are looking for (since its not
on 8.10), but I would like to identify that remains an issue, at least
for 8.04 (my install is a gnome desktop on top of kubuntu) with the xorg
fglrx driver for an ati fire gl card. System hard locks on switch user.

As of Intrepid (8.10), we have a dedicated package 'fglrx-installer' for
fglrx bugs, which now includes a process for upstreaming bugs to AMD.

Hi lemsx1,
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in
it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with
the latest development release of Ubuntu?
Well i have the same problem with my nvidia card (GeForce4 MX440) using
restricted drivers and default in gutsy compiz-fusion. When I want to switch
user, the screen goes to black and nothing happend. It seems that every thing
is working in background - mpd is playing music. The only choice is
I can confirm the bug in the last release of the driver from ATI (8.42.3) with
Gutsy.
Shall we install the 8.37.6 version of the driver? Is there any chance they
(and I mean ATI) fix this?

By any chance are people still affected by this on Gutsy running
xserver-xgl? XGL can only run one session at a time, and if you have it
installed, it automatically attempts to use it for all sessions.

I still have this problem now in Gutsy., only with fglrx.
Starting Gnome
Switch User
System freeze
Monitor is still active, but black. With Strg+Alt+Entf I get a PC-
speaker peep. The only way is to reboot the system.

A workaround for this always was to set AlwaysRestartServer=true
/etc/gdm/gdm.conf in the [Daemon] section. Try that to see if it helps.
You can also do this by adding this to the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom file:
[Daemon]
AlwaysRestartServer=true

Thx, but that doesnt change anything. Still the same freeze. Not that
problem for me, I just thought i could be fixed.
Again the ATI/AMD users are the idiots.

This bug was fixed in newer versions of fglrx, which is now available
in Gutsy.
There are no plans to add fglrx 8.37.6 to Feisty officially, but I've
created .debs for Feisty users needing this fix. These are available
at http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/fglrx-8.37.6-Feisty/

The new 8.35.5 driver may fix this. Release notes:
The screen no longer turns black if the X-Server is terminated from the
text console. This condition was known to occur only on certain laptop
configurations. Further details can be found in topic number 737-26829.
