Public bug reported:
Switching users causes the login screen to lock up and the mouse and
keyboard to become unresponsive.
The order is this:
1) I select "switch user..." from the top bar
2) the login screen pops up and displays the list of users
2) I select my user
4) I enter the password
5) the screen turns black for 2-3 seconds (this is much longer than usual)
6) the login screen pops up again, this time with the text "password" in the
input box; the gear in the bottom right corner to select the type of session is
missing; the mouse and keyboard are unresponsive
7) I need to reboot
I have tried disabling Wayland (uncommented WaylandEnable=false in
/etc/gdm3/custom.conf) but that does not make any difference.
I do not know whether this may be related, but I have had to disabled
the nvidia systemd services because my system failed to suspend until I
did (nvidia driver 470).
