Description Mike 2009-03-16 17:21:03 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

To replicate.

1. Enable widgets on screensaver and password to unlock.

2. Wait for the screen to lock and then get the password prompt to appear.

3. Press escape.

The password dialog will disappear but will not reappear when you move the mouse or type again.  This means you cannot close the screensaver without manually killing it.

It works properly without widgets on the screensaver.

Sorry, this title should be 'widgets on screensaver', not 'widgets on desktop'.  Can someon change that, thanks :)

I executed the steps descibed, and indeed, if you press "escape" when the dialog box to unlock the screen saver appears, it will not come back if you move the mouse.

However, in the corner, next to the cashew, you could find a button called "unlock screen" which will recall the dialog box.
