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

 

I've used my laptop with built in display since the release of 14.04
(upgraded from 13.10) and did never see this issue until I started connect
a second display, then I've been getting this issue. It's definitely dual
screen related.

I've also been seeing this issue on my computer at work, also with dual
screen.

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

Status in Unity:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  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 :(
