[Bug 290704] Re: [fglrx][Intrepid] Computer freeze when switching user

[hede]

 - me too - (with an Ati Radeon HD 2400 pro)

I'm affected by this Problem since last Summers Intrepid Update. (switched from x86 to AMD64)
First with Catalyst 8.10 prerelease then Catalyst 8.10 stable.

I tested 8.12 (stable), 9.1 beta and 9.2 ces09-preview. To no avail
(except: 9.2 has additional problems, but its not even beta so its ok)

Like Anakin Starkiller wrote, presumably this won't get fixed in the near future :-(
(but using xvideo output with compiz is fine now :-) (Nevertheless I would prefere a working second X server))

I even switched from a 2-head configuration to one single Monitor. No
luck.

(btw: I'm using this feature not only to switch users. Very often I just
start a game at another X Server to be able to switch between the full
screen game and the rest of my desktop without closing the game. Thats
also impossible for now. Like abacher wrote, it's not even possible to
start a second X screen from a text tty. (btw gaming... thats the reason
I prefere fglrx for now...))
