[Bug 1285258] Re: sometimes GNOME screen lock fails to unlock after password entered
I've been experiencing this problem for several months. The lock screen appears, but the keyboard doesn't respond. Sometimes I can type a few characters in the password field before it stops responding. I can move my mouse and click the button on the top right of the screen to re-lock and try again.

Ubuntu 16.04, GNOME shell 3.18.5 I have the same issue. I often meet this issue when I unlock the screen before the black screen returns to the original screen. In short, when I unlock it very quickly, this issue happened. Screen is successfully unlocked, but the only thing I get is a single mouse pointer and black screen.

I can't login when I changed keyboard layout from English US. If I lock screen with English layout then I could login in. It seems language changer doesn't work on Unlock screen.

I experience this bug some times too. The system isn't frozen; it's just that the unlock operation either gets "stuck" or maybe it just takes a very long time.

[Bug 1285258] Re: sometimes GNOME screen lock fails to unlock after password entered
I haven't seen this bug for very long, but I have a suspicion of what it is. Now-a-days I use SSD-drives. They are much faster than HDDs. Although, if I run Virtualbox or dd it takes several seconds to unlock the screensaver. I suspect that the screensaver is trying to reach a library or data in the file system on the harddisk and is prevented to do this when other disk operations pending. Sometimes I wait until operation is finished. HDDs are slower and you need to wait a bit longer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1285258 Title: sometimes GNOME screen lock fails to unlock after password entered To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1285258/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
