Steps to repeat: 1. Create two user accounts 2. Log in as one or the other 3. Attempt to switch users by selecting the other user's name or by selecting 'Switch user...' from the power menu. What happens: I get a screen with corrupted graphics that does not respond to input other than showing mouse movement (cursor is a huge block instead of a pointer). See attached screenshot for more details. If I use Ctrl+Alt+Fx key kombo I can succesfully switch back to my working X-session, but all new log-ins attempted will be garbled. What should happen: I should either get a login screen or the screensaver password dialog for the other user! Work-around: disable desktop effects for the user initiating user switch or creating new log-ins.
