Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

hum:/var/log# tail syslog
Dec 12 13:38:37 hum gdm-binary[959]: WARNING: Error activating session for user 
sbock: Activation is not supported for this kind of seat

each time I unsuccessfully try to switch, one of these lines is
generated.

All worked well in 8.10, unsure about 9.04, rather sure 9.10 malfunctioned.
Now I'm stuck with 10.04 and no user switching.

Followed some bug reports, the most promising being
http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/schwarzer-bildschirm-bei-
benutzerwechsel-2/#post-2478232 which proposed to install the newest
gnome-screensaver, which I already had...
