[Bug 1730478] Re: using shift key to wake up display causes invalid password

2018-01-07 Thread Scott Moser
Well, I do not have 'Sticky keys' enabled now, and I doubt I ever did. It really felt to me that the lock screen and "everything else" seemed to keep independent state for shift (or caps lock possibly), and I happened to get them out of sync. I'm fine for this bug to expire, but figure I'd at le

I can't seem to reproduce the problem yet. Waking the screen with Shift works, but does not dismiss the lock screen. The lock screen only goes away after I start typing a password but it seems to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, whi
