Public bug reported: Hello, I use i3lock to lock my screen. systemd starts gnome-screensaver when I suspend my laptop because I haven't figured out how to turn that off yet.
Most of the time this is no big deal, I just have to unlock twice the five or six times a year I suspend my laptop. Today, however, I couldn't actually interact with the gnome-screensaver lock screen: - I resumed my laptop - I unlocked the already-running i3lock - The gnome-screensaver was running, showed the correct time in the center of the 'titlebar', showed my user name in the right side of the titlebar, and the mouse moved around fine. - I blindly typed my password and hit enter - The mouse pointer turned to a spinner for 20~40 seconds - The mouse pointer could move around, but couldn't interact with any screen elements - ctrl+alt+f1 etc worked fine to change virtual consoles I was only able to use my X11 session after manually killing the gnome- screensaver process from a shell.
