[Bug 996770] Re: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend
12.10 64bit. Intel 4000 graphics. No gnome-screensaver; I took it off. Still happens. Gnome 3.6 on Ubuntu. I suspect there could be two bugs: sometimes I can type the password blind, and get back in again. Other times I can't. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996770 Title: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/996770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Here's the dstack output for gnome-screensaver as well. I can't distinguish by these outputs which of them is the culprit.

I hit this with my Thinkpad X60 as well. Neither killing compiz nor gnome-screensaver solves it, only restarting lightdm will do.

[Bug 996770] Re: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend
This bug appears to be related to the lock screen itself. I can suspend/resume or come out of monitor power-save mode just fine if I completely disable the lock screen. However, the bug happens to me if the lock screen is initialized for any reason (i.e. even if it's just a timeout without any suspend or power saving features). I can't be sure, but I don't think that any of the video drivers or APM features are at fault in this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996770 Title: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/996770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 996770] Re: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend
Hi Christopher. In case compiz is hung then a stack trace of the compiz process would be very helpful. To do this... 0. Download and keep a copy of the attached dstack script handy in your home directory. Then when the hang occurs; 1. Switch to a VT (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and log in. 2. sudo ./dstack compiz > compizhang.txt 3. Kill/restart/recover any way you like (e.g. sudo restart lightdm) 4. Attach compizhang.txt to this bug. ** Attachment added: "dstack" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/996770/+attachment/3258784/+files/dstack ** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996770 Title: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/996770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 996770] Re: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend
I am having the same problem on both my new asus zenbook prime and my old custom-built desktop. The problem exists in both gnome-classic and gnome-shell, so it is not gnome/unity/compiz specific. This is a pretty major bug as it sometimes causes me to lose my work. I should mention that both setups usually use dual monitors. I'm not sure if that makes any difference. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996770 Title: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/996770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This has happened to me as well on a Dell Precision T3400 desktop with Ubuntu 12.04 and GNOME 3.4.1 all 64 bits. I am using twinview with dual- monitor setup and an Nvidia card and drivers. The bug has the same behavior as described above.

I have seen this repeatedly on three different laptops (all lenovo/IBM - but of widely differing vintage). It has been present since 12.04 release through the current day. I work-around using ctl-alt-F1 and the sudo restart lightdm.

[Bug 996770] Re: Lock screen is occasionally solid black except for mouse cursor after resuming from suspend
Perhaps this is not the same issue (?), but issuing the command: gnome-screensaver-command -l occassionally leaves me with a black screen - even after numerous mouse clicks / key presses - and the cursor is not visible. When this happens, I am able to log back in by blindly typing my password and pressing - just as if the "Lock screen" dialog was visible. Unlike the original post, my attempts to switch to a tty (e.g. Ctrl + Alt + F2) result in the same blank screen (i.e. no prompt for login username)..
