Also if you could answer the question in #108 this could help us a lot to further debug if necessary the PAM module.
And to add, I'm also using a finger print reader (fprintd) as an authentication before the password, but there are some interesting facts about it(before anyone jump and point fingers there): It has a timeout of 10s, the wait for the password text area is ~1 min If I suspend the laptop manually and wake it it uses the fingerprint reader normally. If I close the lid and open it - the finger print reader authentication is not available and the bug occurs. Conclusion: Possibly the fprintd.so library is not loaded for some reason on lid open, or the PAM module encounters some problems, after which it falls back (somehow) to the unix password. Again if you answer #108 would be most appreciated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

Will be included with next SRU. *** If you can reproduce this bug please be sure to provide the following info: 1. Do you use a multi-head setup? If yes, using just one monitor fixes the issue? 2. Can you reproduce all the time? 3. Do you use ldap? If yes, using gnome-screensaver fix the issue (see comment #115) can you still reproduce that? 4. Please consider posting /var/log/auth.log (at least part of it, should not contain sensitive information) 5. Please specify the unity version *** END IMPORTANT ** Sometimes (but not always) after locking the screen there is the situation not having any input field where I can type the password to unlock the session again. The shaded gray area simply does not have the input field. I can't do anything, I have to switch to text console and stop/start lightdm service to cure the problem loosing all of my session :( ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: unity 7.2.0+14.04.20140416-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Tue Apr 22 22:17:57 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-03-03 (780 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110427.1) SourcePackage: unity UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2013-10-18 (186 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1311316/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
