[Bug 848562] Re: gnome-shell lock screen does not display password prompt

 

I have 2 monitors as well and having the same issue. My difference is I
cannot unlock it since I only shows the bar on the top of the screen
with the clock. The mouse works but it is very laggy.

Title:
  gnome-shell lock screen does not display password prompt

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have two monitors, the laptop screen and an external one connected
  via display port.

  When I do 'ctrl-alt-L' in gnome-shell to lock the screen, the laptop
  screen displays the screen background and the second monitor displays
  whatever was on it before locking the screen.

  When I press a key, no password prompt appears - the laptop continues
  to display the background. However, entering the password at this
  point unlocks the computer.
