I am using a single-monitor 1280x1024 setup with a 256M FireGL V3700,
and a similar issue is exhibited (differing only in log output). I have
successfully used a dual-monitor setup with this card where _both_
monitors had higher resolution than this one; I agree that this is not
likely to be
This also happens on the same hardware running natty:

Title:
Switch user does not work
To manage notifications

this could be a conflict with the framebuffer device.
I will try and compile a kernel without builtin fbdev and see if this
solves this issue.

Bugs,
I think the problem is that you're simply running out of video memory.
Each user session runs in its own Xserver. Each Xserver needs video
memory for various render and display buffers. A number of factors
influence video memory usage:
* number and size of attached monitors
* virtual desktop size
I cannot believe that this is really a memory issue.
Yesterday I exchanged the hardware from a single monitor with 128MB
nVidia graphics card to a dual monitor setup with a 256MB ATI
Technologies Inc RV730 [FirePro V5700].
The user switching was working flawlessly with the nVidia proprietary
I removed the fglrx package and configured X to use the radeon driver
with the two monitors.
With the radeon X11 driver I am able to switch users.
I still think this is an fglrx issue.

** Description changed:
When trying to switch to another user lightdm tries to start a new
xserver (which crashes) and then the system stays on tty8.
- Manually switching back to tty7 by pressing ALT-F8 works.
