[Dx-packages] [Bug 1305586] Re: Lock screen is unusable when some windows have a keyboard/mouse grab
I confirm what Simon Buchan wrote in his comment. - I start VirtualBox with Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS as guest, fullscreen - Wait for Unity lockscreen (timeout set to 1 minute for testing) - Keyboard input does not seem to respond, mouse works fine. Now there is other workaround to get input not going to the VM but to lockscreen text box. I just need to switch off fullscreen for the VM with keyboard shortcut Host + F (by default Right Ctrl + F) and then open indicators and finally switch to the lockscreen password text box. I have only one monitor. @Simon this particular problem might be resolved with the Unity SRU update. Christopher Townsend mentioned in comment #23 that the Compiz SRU doesn't resolve all the problems and that Unity SRU has still some fixes which should make this bettter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

@Simon, that's exactly what Mateusz says: the problem you're talking about is fixed in the unity SRU, the verification process we're currently doing is only for Compiz, which has a change that improves us to solve this issue, in some cases (like the one mentioned in verification process), but not in all the ones.

The proposed fix doesn't seem to work for me: - Enable trusty-proposed, with /etc/apt/preferences pin - Update compiz with aptitude -t trusty-proposed - dpkg --status compiz gives: Status: install ok installed and Version: 1:0.9.11.1+14.04.20140701-0ubuntu1 - Restart, relogin - Start VirtualBox (ver 4.3.10-dfsg-1) my Windows 8.1 update 1 VM, fullscreen - Wait for Unity lockscreen (timeout set to 1 minute for testing) - Keyboard input does not seem to respond, mouse works fine. - Switch accounts..., log in as myself again succeeds, returns to existing session - Keyboard input has been going to the windows VM This is a dual monitor system which might be important. Apt is otherwise up to date with released packages. The mentioned workarounds to get focus back to the login screen don't seem to work for me either (unity --replace, host key etc...).

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1305586] Re: Lock screen is unusable when some windows have a keyboard/mouse grab
I'm marking it as verification-done because there are no more problems with unusable lockscreen. However there are some things which don't work entirely as expected. I've tested three programs VMware, VirtualBox and gksudo window summoned by gdebi. In case of VirtualBox everything worked, the screen turned off and it was locked and I had no problems unlocking it. In case of VMware and gksudo the screen turned off but it didn't lock until I released the keyboard/mouse grab in case of VMware, dismissed the window in case of gksudo. Until I released the keyboard/mouse grab I saw the desktop. When I released the grab lockscreen kicked in immediately and I was able to type my password and unlock. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

Hi Mateusz, Thanks for validating this. You're correct in that this one fix doesn't address everything. There is still some fixes to go into the next Unity SRU that will make this better. We included this fix in this Compiz SRU in preparation for that Unity SRU. We are in the process of preparing the next Unity SRU, so keep an eye out for it in the not-too-distant future.

I get this also, with 14.10 LTS as a host and 14.04 as a VirtualBox guest. My solution is to programmatically minimise VB by selecting another TTY (via Ctrl-Alt-F1) and running this script: WID=`DISPLAY=:0 xdotool search --name \[Running\]` DISPLAY=:0 xdotool windowminimize $WID That gets the window ID of the VB window and then minimises it. I then Ctrl-Alt-F7 back to the desktop, click on the sound/clock menu or something (it seems to free up the focus) and then the password field will work again. It's a faff, but at least it works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

Re: [Dx-packages] [Bug 1305586] Re: Lock screen is unusable when some windows have a keyboard/mouse grab
Try hitting the host key (right-ctrl) then ctrl-alt-arrow to switch to a different desktop other that your Windows vm desktop. Then click around on the calendar/login widgets in the upper right, just get them to pop. Then click on the password dialog, keyboard should be active then. It's honkey, but I've been successful.

Re: [Dx-packages] [Bug 1305586] Re: Lock screen is unusable when some windows have a keyboard/mouse grab
I am usually in a windows VM full screen. So first I have to hit the nix attention button, then alt-ctrl-up to get to a nix desktop. This still doesn't give me keyboard control, but if I mouse over to the upper right like you're describing, but all I have to do is get the calendar icon to pop open, or the switch user menu or something. Don't actually have to click on anything, just get those things to respond. Then, finally, the login password prompt will respond. Clumsy but it works.

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1305586] Re: Lock screen is unusable when some windows have a keyboard/mouse grab
Andrea, That's why I've written some... Basically it happens for the windows that don't emit a NotifyGrab event to the server. And the problem is that X doesn't guarantee that this happens when a grab is set. So, while in some cases (like the gnome-keyring box) we can still get an NotifyWhileGrabbed event that is enough for us to know that it's grabbing, in other ones (like vbox), there's not much other way than trying to grab/ungrab the root window to check if the screen is already grabbed or not. :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
