[Bug 886605] Re: Desktop, Launcher and menu bar still visible when screen locked

 

I got rid of this after noticing that my desktop environment registered
two screens although I only used one. After screen reconfiguration -
switching the (actually not existing) screen off, screen lock behaviour
was as it should be.

I'm using  LTSP  and the "bug" appeared on my thin clients, which are
all using laptop hardware or are actual laptops and the second screen
(auto configured) was called laptop. On the laptop client which actually
uses the second screen, screen locking works as expected.

In my case the error is only occurring when a second screen is auto
detected but not actually used.

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  1. Lock your screen
     -> Confirm that the whole screen goes black

  [Regression Potential]
  Visual regressions, shell drawing problems. Part of a big change, many regression potentials.

  Original description:

  When I lock my screen, instead of the monitor going, black, the
  desktop background goes black, but the Unity launcher and the main bar
  stay visible.  When I press a key or move my mouse the "unlock"
  dialog, asking me for my password pops up, centered on the black
  desktop background.

  I think the main issue here is gnome-screensaver failing to
  fullscreen.
