[Bug 49579] Re: screen doesn't lock when panel menu is open

 

This bug is still present in Natty. I discovered it some days ago with
an open indicator menu. Didn't know that it had so big a backstory. But
now I understand that this is a more general problem.

Title:
  screen doesn't lock when panel menu is open

Status in GNOME Screensaver:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

  I'm running a fresh install of Dapper with screensaver set to 'blank
  screen', and 'lock screen when screensaver is active' enabled.

  If a panel menu (e.g. Applications) is open and the machine is left
  idle, the screen fails to lock. It fades out after the time period as
  expected, but the desktop reappears after a few seconds.
