Hi!
I'm currently on Kubuntu 14.10 KDE 4.14.2 32-bit.
For a (very) long time (several versiion back) I've problems switching users (been to lazy to adress the problem). What happens is that switching users (me, my girlfriend and our son) we always get freezes/lockups changing users via GUI.
Some times it's not possible to login as a second user and almost 100% of the time it's not possible to return properly to the first user.
If it works you always get to the original login screen (that is not to the "locked screen" login for that user). That means that instead of returning to the previous you always start a new session.
(crtl+alt FnX makes no diffrence) Returning to previous session results in black screen and hard reset needed.
I have tried changing between kdm and lightdm but no change. I have no clue as to how to trace the problem or what information could be useful.
I noted that when i log on three sessions are started (via "who" or "users" command).
From "dmesg" I see some user related errors that I don't understand (I have tried google them too).
