[Bug 1837389] Re: mate-screensaver crashes

 

It's happening more and more frequently , now it's happening different ,
one screen is locked , the second is open , but unclickable but you
could see everything on screen and switch between Windows

You can't lock the second screen unless you open the first one(it might be black screen)
So one screen is locked with security and the second is not locked , or half locked.

** Also affects: indicator-applet (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Information type changed from Public to Public Security

  I have the crash files if you need them , Or you could tell me what exactly you need from me or how to send you the dump crashes and whether they contain private information or not , please tell me 
  I set this as Security risk because once it crashes , you are free to go with the PC , and I don't know if someone manages to crash it will be able to bypass the login screen.

  Screensaver crashes and it allows you to have control over the PC with
  no need for password or anything else.
