[Bug 1285258] [NEW] failing to unlock screensaver

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

There seem to be two distinct errors when unlocking gnome-screensaver.
Both prevents you from logging in. The first is the most serious.

1) When I move the mouse, the lock screen appears. Whatever I type it
only activates the top right menu. I'm completely unable to login. I
used power button to restart the computer.

2) Most common is that you can type your password, but the rotating-
pause-animation never stops. You can cancel this with the button and
usually you can get passed the screensave on the second attempt.
