Thanks for the tip! It wasn't in fact the same issue, but just looking at /etc/pam.d and /var/log/auth.log helped me getting to the root of this. While running Feisty I added the line @include common-pamkeyring to /etc/pam.d/gnome-screensaver to enable automatic WPA authentication after resuming from hibernate. In Gutsy common-pamkeyring isn't available, which caused gnome-screensaver to fail. It should've failed in a more graceful manner, of course, but removing the extra line from /etc/pam.d/gnome-screensaver made things work again.
I'll notice upstream about the cause of the problem and the "fix". -- gnome-screensaver-dialog never shows up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146412 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for gnome-screensaver. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
