Lightdm blackscreen when switching user
Hello,
Recently I've encounter some crash with nouveau driver so I decided to come back to Nvidia (304 version for my geforce 7300 GT). Everything work fine excepted one : When I try to switch to another user (with lightdm installed), I have a black screen with a blinking cursor on the top left of the screen. I have to use alt+SysRKey+e to came back to the greeter (and the current session is closed). any idea?

Re: Lightdm blackscreen when switching user
Same issue. I'm asking about it. I have a Nvidia 630GT with 352.21 driver.
Does it work with the nouveau driver?

Re: Lightdm blackscreen when switching user
I had the same issue and just found the solution to it for my machine.
I'm using an nvidia graphics card and proprietary drivers for it, and this fixed the issue https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xo … _Xorg_1.16
Maybe this'll work for you too?
