[Bug 1407523] Re: Unity in lockscreen mode does not allow password entry

 

I'm associating  unity-services because it appears (from inspecting
running processes) that unity-panel-service is the thing that is
failing. However I would not be surprised to find it's really a bug in
compiz, or the NVidia driver.

Need guidance on what to do next to debug.

Title:
  Unity in lockscreen mode does not allow password entry

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Sometimes, when I come back to my computer after locking it, the
  password field is not displayed. This means I cannot enter the
  password, and I have to do an ungraceful shutdown of my X session.

  It only happens when the workstation has been running for a while
  (usually a few weeks) which leads me to suspect a memory leak, or
  similar.

  The unlock dialog box appears, but the password field is not rendered.
