Ubuntu

Can't return to my session after switching to guest account

Asked by Vincent Tschanz

Before filing a bug, I would try to know if other users can reproduce this problem :

1- log in with your user account
2- switch to guest session using the second-last top-right menu
3- close the guest session by selecting "log out" from the last top-right menu
4- select your user in the login screen and fill in the password field

what happen here : instead of returning to my session, I'm stuck in the login screen, and the password field disappear. The mouse moves, but there is nothing I can do to login again. even the shutdown menu is helpless, I have to hard-reset the computer.

Are you experiencing the same behaviour?

thanks

Okay, things have changed since last ubuntu updates.

Now, after step 4, I'm stuck with a black screen, no mouse, nothing. just the power button to hrd reboot.

Can someone test this just to know if I'm alone or if it's a critical bug?

Thank you!

I installed Oneric on other computers and wasn't able to reproduce the bug, something must be wrong in my main computer.
