Title:
Removal of gdmflexiserver breaks user switching
To
I'm not sure that this issue can really be sorted upstream, first one
would have to assess whether gdmflexiserver is still used in some
distros.
In this case I'd personally advocate patching the xfswitch-plugin in
Ubuntu to use dm-tool over gdmflexiserver (seems like an easy-enough
thing to do),
A simple workaround is creating the file /usr/local/bin/gdmflexiserver:
#!/bin/sh
#
# replacement for missing gdmflexiserver in Ubuntu 14.04
#
dm-tool switch-to-greeter
and make it executable (chmod 755).

Thank you Anton Asche.
I've just tried your workaround and I can switch users now.

This bug is caused by the removal of gdmflexiserver in Ubuntu 14.04. The
source of xfswitch-plugin needs to be edited accordingly. It should
either call dm-tool switch-to-greeter (lightdm) or a wrapper script
which detects the running display manager and initiates the user switch.
