Bug#823243: kde-plasma-desktop: Screen is black after user switch back to first login after long period
Package: kde-plasma-desktop
Version: 5:90
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
I use the KDE plasma with multiple users at home on my Debian Testing system.
We keep different sessions logged in at once. When I do a user switch after
around 8 hours or more, the screen remains black. Only the mouse pointer
remains visible. If I kill the X server I see that my sessions was blanked.
This happens with both accounts.
Going back and forth between sessions does not work. The other session is still
available if I use Ctrl+alt+F7.
Also I'm not enterily clear how I can bypass this problem.
If I do a user switch after only an hour, the normal log-in screen is display
and I'm able to log in.
My system has ample system memory for 2 sessions. I use a Nvidia GTX-970 with
the Nvidia proprietary driver to display graphics.
