No problem. After it happened this last time, I booted using a boot cd to copy the file, so the last entries you see will have happened right before I had to manually shut it down. Here it is. Logins changed to preserve anonymity.

The user switching to is not logged in yet. Expected behavior: Click current user up top> from the drop-down click the user wanting to log in > brought to the lightdm log in screen and log that user in Instead: Click current user up top> from the dropdown click the user wanting to log in > brought to a black screen with a blinking cursor From here, you cannot type or initiate any keyboard shortcuts other than Ctrl +Alt+F(1-6) to reach tty1 etc, or Ctrl+Alt+F7 to return to the user that you were originally trying to switch from. Ctrl+Alt+F8 will bring you back to the black screen. This happens pretty often so I should be able to test anything needed. Thanks!
