Clicking on the apps shows the app for a moment before being hidden again. The system drop down menu shows the usual information except the system tools / lock / power icons with a pause button displayed in their place but all is disabled except the pause button which suspends the computer. Upon waking again the computer is still locked. Have not discovered a key sequence that does anything when in this state. Cannot even switch virtual terminals or desktops. My only solution has been to power off the machine and do a hard reboot. I expected the lock screen to blank out the screen as it did in the previous release and show a login My computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad T-410 with 6Gb RAM.
