[Bug 1311316] Re: After locking screen there is no input field to type password for unlock

 

Same here, same hardware as henryweismann in comment #19 (System76
Gazelle pro), with external monitor (i.e. dual monitor setup).

Switching to VT1 and running unity fixes it but then the windows are on
different desktops, some settings are reset (e.g. ctrl-alt-0 does not
minimize windows anymore, top menu line is empty, no indicators etc.).

Also tried compiz --replace and unity --replace,  neither  fixes the
keyboard shortcuts and empty menu/panel at the top of the screen (where
notifications are).

  After locking screen there is no input field to type password for
  unlock

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Sometimes (but not always) after locking the screen there is the
  situation not having any input field where I can type the password to
  unlock the session again. The shaded gray area simply does not have
  the input field. I can't do anything, I have to switch to text console
  and stop/start lightdm service to cure the problem loosing all of my
  session :(
