[Bug 1342024] Re: Unity exits while screen locked

 

Obviously I wasn't going to put up with this problem for 5 months. I now
run metacity.

Because it's 5 months ago, I can't actually remember, but I expect it
did:

$ ps aux | grep unity

And got no results.

Then I did
$ DISPLAY=:0 unity

Don't remember about compiz.

Title:
  Unity exits while screen locked

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Sometimes I return to my computer, find the screen locked. When I move
  the mouse, I see the background image, and my name, but no box the
  enter a password, and I can't unlock the screen. Switching to another
  VT, I find that unity isn't running any more. Starting it resolves the
  problem - i.e. I can then unlock the screen.

  A crash report isn't generated.

  I don't know where to find any further information on why unity exits.
  It doesn't exit unexpectedly under any other circumstances.
