Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
Lucid Lynx (10.4) released today.
I suspect this may not be a problem with gdm but the infrastructure governing
logins. Here is the scenario:
1. Perform a switch user from my ID
2. Login to root (yes, I need root user access)
3. Some maintenance activity
4. Log out of root expecting to return to my ID via a lock screen
5. Blank screen requiring a power off restart
Workaround:
Log off instead of switch user. Everything works fine then.
Comment: The new version seems to have a lot of vulnerabilities related
to signing on.
