--- Comment #20 from Tristan Miller <psychon...@nothingisreal.com> ---
With the help of the openSUSE developers I have discovered the cause of the
lock screen freezing after resuming from suspend, at least on my computer.  The
problem was not kscreenlocker but rather a recent regression in the X.Org
xf86-video-intel driver.  This driver is known to cause issues when used with
relatively modern graphics hardware (mine is from 2015), particularly with KDE
Plasma, as detailed at
<https://community.kde.org/Plasma/5.9_Errata#Intel_GPUs>.  The solution for me
was to uninstall the xf86-video-intel driver and instead use the modesetting
driver (which is the default on most GNU/Linux distributions these days).

So any of you who are still suffering from this bug, please check if you are
using the xf86-video-intel driver, and if so, try switching to the modesetting
driver instead.  (Or conversely, if you are using the modesetting driver on a
very old Intel graphics controller, try changing to xf86-video-intel.)  If this
solution works for everyone, then the present bug report can be closed (as
INVALID or UPSTREAM or whatever is appropriate).
