[Bug 1875038] Re: Lock screen not really functioning - Gnome Shell extensions visible and active even in lock screen
I know getting bugs fixed or even recognised as bugs can be very time consuming and frustrating. In the case of gnome-shell extensions we only have the choice between: * Allow extensions, and allow them to do anything including breaking the shell; or * Disallow extensions. A more restricted middleground for extensions does not exist and is unlikely to ever exist because it would be such a large long term change. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875038 Title: Lock screen not really functioning - Gnome Shell extensions visible and active even in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1875038/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1875038] Re: Lock screen not really functioning - Gnome Shell extensions visible and active even in lock screen
I have had this discussion with Gnome Shell developers when I first saw the bug, some versions behind, they see it as a feature, not as a bug. It is like fighting the wind over there. In the real world, where people expect computers and OS's to do what they say they do, a lock screen is supposed to lock access. Whatever else is running behind, access should be restricted, otherwise, it is worthless as a secure OS and lock screen. I know this should be on Gnome Shell developers, but as Ubuntu joined the boat using it, it becomes a problem for Ubuntu, too. I am tired of posting bugs on Gnome bugzilla because it is difficult, close to impossible to fight them (a lost fight was there to add back file sorting by extension in search, for instance). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875038 Title: Lock screen not really functioning - Gnome Shell extensions visible and active even in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1875038/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In theory you're right. In practice, gnome-shell gives extensions free rein to do whatever they want, including painting over whatever they like. gnome-shell can't enforce anything. It just sounds like a bug in the extensions so you need a newer version of the extension that properly supports gnome-shell 3.36. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875038 Title: Lock screen not really functioning - Gnome Shell extensions visible and active even in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1875038/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I know, but does that matter? Lock screen should be over every piece of soft, "locking" the access to computer unless you insert the password. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875038 Title: Lock screen not really functioning - Gnome Shell extensions visible and active even in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1875038/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for the bug report. You appear to be using 'dash-to-dock' which is not part of Ubuntu so we can't support that here.
