Daniel Bystrov, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

I suspected the error in the file xorg.conf and changed the default from 32 bits to 24 bits. After that the display looked correct. When I switch a user from a running session (gnome) to another user, gdm showed me a tiled window with four quarters and only the upper left was correct. Then I experimented with options for the display sections in the file xorg.conf and now the first switch of a user somehow works. But if I switch back to the first user the screen is "nearly" black. I clearly can see the mouse pointer and suspect that everything else, except the display works. Finally I decided to install a new Ubuntu system (no update) on the same computer but here the first user switch does not work. The lower part shows "Ubuntu" and there is no gdm window to log in.
