Description Māris Nartišs 2012-08-07 06:03:47 UTC

KDE Power Management Systems own info dialog with text "Screen is locked" for some strange reason stays on top all the time after resuming. It's not possible to close it, move it or interact in any other way with it. Mouse clicks are delivered to application below the dialog and thus it's not possible to click or interact in any other way with dialogs "Close" button. Subsequent suspend/resume doesn't fix the issue.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Suspend laptop with automatic screen locking;
2. Resume.

Actual Results:  
Observe dialog, that can not be removed.

Expected Results:  
"Screen is locked" announcement should auto-remove or at least be closable with provided "close" button.

I confirm this. It's not reproducible for me, but has happened once since I upgraded to 4.9.0 a few days ago. The English text is "The screen is being locked".

Any suggestions for how to get rid of the notification?

I tried killing knotify4, but that had no effect. Plugging in a USB drive to create a new popup doesn't get rid of the Power Management popup either. Fortunately, the latter is translucent, so I'm able to click on the USB icon to eject the drive.

Confirmed by comment #2.

Comment 5 Graeme Hewson 2012-09-08 13:17:56 UTC

I've just noticed the component assigned in the bug is widget-battery. However, I'm using a (mains-powered) desktop.

Comment 6 Myriam Schweingruber 2012-09-10 11:16:12 UTC

OK, changing status back to the previous state, then.

Comment 7 Graeme Hewson 2012-09-14 08:20:04 UTC

I've raised a suggestion against solid not to display the message at all - bug 306781.

Comment 8 Graeme Hewson 2012-10-01 18:19:45 UTC

A fix has been committed against bug 306781.

Comment 9 Kai Uwe Broulik 2012-10-01 22:07:45 UTC

I removed that notification today. Can be marked as Fixed in 4.10
Thanks!
