Comment 9 for bug 1085751

Hi Joseph,
  this still occurs for me with the 3.5.7 from that link (and with current raring), but as stated not with the 3.5.0-19 from quantal.
My test procedure on my box is:
  * Fresh boot
  * Log in via kdm as my default user
  * Wait for my standard KDE desktop to settle
  * K menu->Leave->Switch user
     * select new session
     * Login as my other user
As my other user:
  * K menu->Leave->Switchuser
  * select the existing session for my main user

And that blew up this time for both 3.7.0-7-generic #15-Ubuntu and 3.5.7-030507-generic #201210130556

and I've checked again, 3.5.0-7 is still good for me - bounced back and forward 5 or 6 times.

I also had a blow up on 3.7.0 when running an SDL game, also triggered the -35

dmesg on the blowups from the user switching test:
3.7.0-7-generic #15-Ubuntu booted, logged in, did switch user, did switch back
