Greetings,

When ones does a switch user from the application launch button then the
screen goes blank and it stays that way until re-booted.
This seems to have been introduced in Debian 12.

Looking around there is no fix to this, only work arounds of varying effectiveness.

One work around is to do a command line

xdg-screensaver lock

There might be something one can click on somewhere to have the same effect.

With this I've so far been able to start another session without loosing anything.
To go back to the first login I had to do a ctrl-alt-f2 then back using ctrl-alt-f7.

This is a bug. It needs to be fixed.

Initiate a screen saver lock then hack away at ctrl-alt-whatever until
one has by-passed the "issues".

If there's a better way or actual fix one would interested to know about it.

Cheers
