In response to Gunnerś comment: It's fine with me that you write a new flickering bug, if you prefer to do so. In any case it seems like the info necessary to describe how to reproduce the login issue is no longer available, so then - as you say - we leave this bug unresolved with a "won't fix".
See the new bug report: Flickering screen on mouse movement on RV370 [Radeon X300/X550/X1050 Series] on 13.10 Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1277675 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1250729 Title: Pre-Ubuntu 13.10 user (with cjkv) can not login with lightdm (ibus) Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The best description I can give is on this link. https://sites.google.com/site/pcproblemdoctor/linux (sorry for the link) I have tried again to recreate the old user danie but still same problem - session=gnome-fallback in stead of ubuntu in .dmrc and run_im still has cjkv (apart from not driver=radeon? and flickering with mouse movement and window update) 1) 'lsb_release -rd' = 13.10 2) 'apt-cache policy lightdm' = 1.8.4-0ubuntu 3) Expected to happen: Login to user account with GUI (lightdm) 4) What happened instead: Can only login with very old (pre-12.10) other user accounts or new user accounts.
