[Bug 929619] Re: Screen unlocks before asking for password

 

This version is no more supported and is not a 'security' problem; so
does not expect a backport

** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Screen unlocks before asking for password

Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  My screen goes into lock, either by my doing, or automatically.  When
  I come back and move the mouse, or enter something on the keyboard, I
  am briefly able to work as the user logged in.  This has been long
  enough where I feel I could do some damage if I wanted to in may
  cases.  The screen then locks and asks for a password, after a bit of
  moving around the system.

  This has been happening since ubuntu 10.11 at least, and the 11.11
  install was a clean install.
