We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when
using a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you
do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days

Title:
startx -- :1 black screen
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have two Xubuntu 14.04 Beta1 installations:
A: upgraded from Xubuntu 12.04.4
B: installed from the Xubuntu 14.04 Beta1 desktop CD.
Both Installations are up-to-date.
To do a user switch I hit e.g. <Ctrl+Alt+F2>, login as e.g. burdi01 and issue
"startx -- :1".
Initially both "A" and "B" gave a black screen without even a cursor. I then
hit <Ctrl+Alt+F2> followed by <Ctrl+C> to get out.
Some googling told me to comment out the "xfce" and "xubuntu" lines in
/etc/upstart-xsessions. This "resolved" the problem for "A", but not
for "B".
The ~burdi01/.xsession-errors file showed:
>> libGL error: failed to open drm device: Permission denied
>> libGL error: failed to load driver: r600
Some googling told me to make burdi01 a member of the video group. This
eliminated the r600 messages, but did not resolve the problem.
The ~burdi01/.xsession-errors file now reads:
>> Xsession: X session started for burdi01 at za mrt 22 18:55:10 CET 2014
>> localuser:burdi01 being added to access control list
>> openConnection: connect: No such file or directory
>> cannot connect to brltty at :0
>> Script for ibus started at run_im.
>> Script for auto started at run_im.
>> Script for default started at run_im.
>> Script for ibus started at run_im.
>> Script for auto started at run_im.
>> Script for default started at run_im.
>> x-session-manager[3689]: CRITICAL: We failed, but the fail whale is dead.
Sorry....
For as far as I can see there is nothing special in the syslogs.
