[Bug 1301125] Re: Lock screen after idle time freezes unity

 

Exactly the same issue here. Fresh installation and opensource (no
catalyst) ati drivers (Radeon HD 4670). This is frustrating, especially
as it is already half a year after the 14.04 release. When 12.04 came
out, I changed the graphics card (removed NVidia 8800 and replaced it by
Radeon 4670) on my workstation because I couldn't get the system work
correctly. Do we have to change graphics cards possibly everytime after
a major release?? Pardon me for this small rant, but this is utterly
frustrating. That said, I'd like to mention that the broken "suspend"
function hasn't been fixed now in years. We run more than 5 different
computers and laptops here in the office. Not one is able to suspend and
to resume correctly. I know that doesn't belong into this thread, but I
just needed to rant and unload some frustration that I picked up over
months and years. Other than that, I love Ubuntu :-)    (despite some
new window/menu related focusing issues in Unity lately...)

Title:
  Lock screen after idle time freezes unity

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I recently upgrade to 14.04. My system uses fglrx provided by 14.04.

  When I lock manually the screen, I get no problem. I can even sleep the system without problem. However,
  when the screen is locked by idle time, I cannot unlock it.

  At this point, I can see the screen but with some kind of translucent
  panel over it. Mouse also works. I tried to type blink the password
  but I had no luck. I only get a working system by going text mode
  (ctrl+alt+f1) and restarting lightdm. No dmesg or Xorg logs seems to
  indicate any error. The only strange log was in .xsession-errors.old:

  init: processos unity-settings-daemon main (2495) terminados com status 1
  init: processos gnome-session (Unity) main (2539) terminados com status 1
  init: processos unity-panel-service main (2572) terminados com status 1
  init: processos hud main (2536) terminados com status 1

  init: processos unity-panel-service-lockscreen main (7447) terminados com status 1
  init: Disconnected from notified D-Bus bus
  init: processos at-spi2-registryd main (2538) terminados com status 1

  But as it has no time info, I cannot tell when they happened.

  At least another user faces the same problem:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2214421

  And this seems to be different from bug 1283938 as pm sleep/wake works
  as expected.
