Description Thomas Pfeiffer 2011-10-11 21:16:34 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

I don't know if it's image-specific, but at least on the meego image when I resume from suspend, I get the standard unlock dialog (with the password) instead of the Active locker, thus being unable to unlock without a keyboard.
But even if I plug a keyboard in and type the password, for some reason I still cannot unlock and have to kill X to log in again.
Could it be because in the power settings, "lock screen on resume" is selected and this uses the wrong locking screen?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Suspend the device (no matter how you do it, happens in all cases)
2. Resume the device

Actual Results:  
You get the standard lock screen

Expected Results:  
You should get the Active lock effect

I've set this bug to "crash" because even though it's not an actual crash, it's similar in severity as it forces users to restart the system unless they have a keyboard at hand and know how to switch to vt-1 and kill Xorg.

If the screen is locked after being idle, the currect lock screen is displayed. The wrong one only happens after resuming form suspend.

Thanks for the info. I tried these already though - with no luck. When I switched to vt-1,
I could log in with meego / meego, but I could not unlock with it. Plus even if the
password did work, it would still keep users locked out without a physical keyboard present.

Bug reproducible on 2011-10-18-00-53-meego-plasma-contour-in-progress-USB-live.iso + updates from yesterday (19th). As Thomas says, you can't unlock the screen even using a physical keyboard; it doesn't accept the default password.

I can't reproduce this bug on my Wetab since some time. Nevertheless, Fania confirms it as well as Martin Brook (vgrade) on the Advent Vega.

I haven't been able to reproduce this bug since some time. Hence, closing this bug...
