Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

When using the switch users functionality, the computer is frozen for a
time after entering the password for the user.  In my case, we always
have two users logged into the system and switch between them.  The
longer the system is up, the longer the terminal will freeze.  While
frozen the screen is black except for a non-responsive mouse cursor.
Keyboard input is apparently ignored, including Ctrl-Alt-Fx, where x is
a number, Ctrl-Alt-Del and Ctrl-Alt-Bksp.
