Title:
Unlock screen is invisible with Nvidia twinview
Status in GNOME Screensaver:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
This bug may equally be an issue with the Nvidia GLX drivers or Xorg.
When my laptop is configured with the following excerpt from
xorg.conf, the gnome-screensaver unlock dialog does not appear. I
haven't tested if the dialog box appears if a second monitor/projector
is connected.
Further symptoms include two screensavers seeming to run at the same
time, sometimes one screensaver briefly appears over the top of the
other.
# Begin xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA Corporation NVIDIA Default Card"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "Coolbits" "1"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP,CRT"
Option "TwinView" "1"
Option "Metamodes" "1280x800,1280x800; 800x600,800x600; 1280x800,NULL"

EndSection
# End xorg.conf
I have disabled the ConnectedMonitor Option and all below it as a
workaround while I do not have a second monitor connected.
