I'm running Ubuntu 10.4 (Lucid) and I had this problem with getting a black screen when switching users also.
Following Igor's advice fixed it for me. The steps I took were: 1. Download the nvidia-96 96.43.18-0ubuntu1 package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/nvidia-96 2. Install the package with the following command: sudo dpkg -i nvidia-96_96.43.18-0ubuntu1_i386.deb 3. Restart the computer Since then everything works perfectly. Thanks to Igor and the rest of you for the support! -- No video signal after "Log out" in gnome when multiple users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/573101 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-96 in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
