[Bug 314576] [NEW] Can't unlock after suspend/screensaver

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 227994 ***

Public bug reported:

I want my screen to lock after suspending. I tried to achieve this by
setting the screensaver to lock then going into gconf-editor then Apps
>gnome-power-manager>lock then checked use_screensaver_settings. I also
experimented with various other settings, after unchecking the
use_screensaver one, but all led to the same outcome.

After suspend I did get the proper dialogue box (with options to leave a
message, switch user etc), and it recognised who I was (i.e. welcome
kev). However, no matter how many times I entered the password it would
not recognise it. Pressing switch user took me to the normal gdm login
screen where I could log in using the same password I'd been trying
before. I only have one non-root user on the system.

The system is an eeePC901-BK006 running ubuntu-eee 8.04.1 with all
available updates installed.
