switching users... forget it!

[c. marlow]

Hello folks!

I was trying to let my little cousin get on the computer and I went to 
switch users and it popped up saying you know you can use F 7-8-9 to 
switch accounts and I hit ok and dont show me this again and when I 
would go to switch back to me, my user name,  my screen would just be 
black and there would be a cursor on my screen.

finally I just got frustrated with Linux Mint and just turned the 
computer off and back on and now its working fine. I have the nvidia 
driver downloaded from the ADDITIONAL DRIVERS. 331.xxx or something like 
that. Its been installed ( the driver) since this morning. And yes I am 
fully up to date, and YES I rebooted after I installed the drivers, both 
updates and for the nvidia drivers.

I just hope I dont have to put up with LINUX too much longer... Tired of 
reformatting.  Hope to replace this machine with a windows machine sooon!!!

This is a brand new install of MINT 17... Just downloaded / installed it 
last night. around this time... Its 8:36 PM CDT ( Central Daylight time) 
as I write this.

Thanks,
