Hi Seth, The screen was locked automatically after me being away from the work station for a couple of minutes.
Unlocking the screen was, as mentioned in the report, a matter of trial and error which involved pressing some keys (where I noticed nothing appeared in the password input field even though the caret was blinking in it) and then pressing enter a couple of times. I also clicked on the gear/logout icon and then on the password input field for trial and error, but am not sure if that's what got me out of the bad state. In the Terminal I was running dpkg, followed by debsign (using GPG, so I had to provide a password to unlock my key - a different password than for logging in). Also Pidgin was running, but I'm not sure if that received keyboard input or not. Hope that helps, otherwise I'll try to provoke it again tomorrow and try to narrow it down. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1321747 Title: Unity lock screen bypassed with debsign password prompt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1321747/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
