Same for me! I usually update as soon as there is a new update. Yesterday (28 nov, 2007) there were some 5 updates which I installed. Right after that the problems with user switching began.
The error shows itself in two ways for me: 1) sometimes I just get a black screen after trying to switch user. In this situation I have to power off. 2) sometimes I get to enter the password for the new user and here it hangs forever. But I can get out of it by clicking left lower corner, cancel or something. I am also using Ubuntu 7.10 with all updates up to yesterday. -- Switch User fails after updating with unsupported updates enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172698 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
