Bug ID: 421066
Summary: No password prompt to unlock screen after resume from
suspend
Product: kscreenlocker
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcheckpass
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: silvan.cala...@mambasoft.it

Target Milestone: ---

My ~/.config/kscreenlockerrc
SUMMARY
When resuming from suspend I'm often unable to unlock the screen because there
is no password prompt.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Suspend at evening
2. Resume at morning
OBSERVED RESULT
There is no password unlock prompt, also time and date display are absent, only
background image is visible. Mouse/touchpad and keyboard presses have no
effects. Unable to unlock.
EXPECTED RESULT
Get a password prompt to type password and unlock the screen.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
The distribution is openmamba (it's missing in platform list, can it be added?)
and I'm the RPM packages maintainer.
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: any version tested in last years
KDE Frameworks Version: any version tested in last years
Qt Version: any version tested in last years
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
To unlock I need to press CTRL-ALT-F2, login and kill the kscreenlocker_greet
process. Then when going back with ALT-F1 i get the password prompt (a new
kscreenlocker_greet process is spawned).
It seems I can't reproduce the problem if I suspend/resume within a short time
and also normal screen lock when PC is left on seems to always work.
I've been having this problem for years about every two mornings.
A similar bug has been closed in NEEDSINFO state, but I can give mode details
as requested.
