[Bug 50198] Re: "Timeout has expired" error on resume from hibernate

 

I'm running a Dell Inspiron N5010. I encountered this problem
consistently with Ubuntu 10.04 (a few times a day) and have not
encountered it in Ubuntu 11.10 yet. I have been running 11.10 for more
than a week without problem.

Title:
  "Timeout has expired" error on resume from hibernate

Status in GNOME Screensaver:
  New
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Invalid
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug occurs at random but it happens at least five times a week so
  I have plenty of opportunity to test 8-(

  On resuming from hibernate I get a small window asking for my user ID
  and password. One of three things then happens:

  a) I enter my password and start using my laptop.

  b) During password entry I get an error message "Timeout has expired".
  The screen then goes black and then resumes at the ID and password
  window with the password field blank. Sometimes I do not notice this
  which means that I only enter the second portion of my password.

  c) As soon as I resume from hibernate I see the "Timeout has expired"
  error message. By moving the mouse pointer around the screen goes
  black then resumes at the user ID / password window.

  This bug is of course none-critical, just annoying.
