[wplug] White screen of death

[Weber, Lawrence A]

It only occurs about 1 out of every 5 or 6 times that I switch. And so far only when I go to the "second" user.  I ran this system for a couple of years with no problems, it was only when I recently added the second user that the problem started.

I haven't seen the exact behavior you describe, but when I've seen that kind of thing in Fedora, its usually related to a misconfigured video card / and or no opengl support.

(Even if you're not doing anything explicitly 3D, OpenGL is used by the window manager.)
