I can still reproduce this bug while running Compiz on Gutsy x86_64 with the nvidia-glx-new package. Switch to VT1, back to VT7, and I get a black screen with only a mouse pointer.

@Matt Price Compositing _will_ be enabled by default. But Nvidia 3d driver will NOT be enabled by default. So, at the first login, the restricted drivers manager pops up. It ask, do you want to install NVidia driver? User clicks yes. It installs, it asks for a reboot. User reboots. User will now login the 2nd time. Compositing is now already enabled. == Possible fix (but MAJOR HACK) Only on NVidia hardware: Make switching users go back to the login screen. This for some weird reason does works.

Regarding the One X per GPU comment: It is not 100% clear whether that comment only covers running two X servers simultaneously off the same GPU (e.g. one card running two different X servers on two different monitors simultaneously) or whether that covers the user switching scenario too (two X servers on the same GPU but not not necessarily changing the screen the same time but rather co-operatively). Someone will have to explicitly ask NVIDIA what that statement does and doesn't cover (ideally with examples). If NVIDIA indicate that the later case is not supported (and can say why) and they do not wish to hear about issues arising from it, then I would recommend a new bug report be created separately from this. That way VT switching issues are kept separate and people having user switching issues on the NVIDIA binary only drivers are at least informed about its situation. -- [nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ralf: The bugs will still be there and I think if it isn't compiz-fusion triggering it then it will be something else (perhaps the KDE4 compositor). The quickest workaround is not to use AIGLX but I don't think that's what you're looking for. I do see what you're saying though (as I believe compiz-fusion has had a beryl workaround for some of the NVIDIA black screen issues added) but in that case I think you are better off filing a new bug report on compiz-fusion asking for only that (and then posting a link to the new bug here) rather than changing bugs talking about the underlying issue. What's your take on this? I'm acutely aware of the bugs (maybe it will help if you take a look at the bugs I've commented on via my person page) but I guess my thinking is that it just means the NVIDIA and ATI need to be contacted to see if they can work out where the bug lies and if they can generate a fix (or at least talk to those who can). The intent of my comments was to inform and have the issue resolved as quickly as possible (hence the followup userspace/system lockups explanation) but I see from your reaction that this was not the case. What should I have done (I'll keep this in mind for future comments)? -- nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 88152] Re: nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects
I'm also having this problem in a Compaq Presario F572US with Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty). I removed the usplash package, the splash kernel boot option and added the vga=normal boot option and now I can swith to virtual console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and back to X (Alt-F7) only if I am using the metacity (normal) window manager but if I enable compiz (composite manager) the problem comes back (blank screen with mouse pointer and must reset the machine). Here is the hardware info: $ uname -a Linux f572us 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux $lspci ... 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a2) ... I can't make suspend work with any window manager :'( -- nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is a real bug (even if people have discovered workarounds for it). It was fixed in the 100 series drivers. Also, moving to linux- restricted-modules-2.6.22 since that's the current one. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22 (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20 = linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22 Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- [nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 88152] Re: [nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects
I disabled it and also disabled the sync_to_vblank. with only the detect_refresh_rate trick I could switch and back to the console but not to another X display. Now everything is mostly okay. Last bug I noticed : my gnome-panel with a transparent background was completely transparent (but still there with all its applets) after coming back from another X display. Just changing its background restored it. -- [nvidia-glx] Switch user/switch VT causes lockup with compiz/beryl/desktop-effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
