Public bug reported: If you don't type password on the lock screen and leave it inactive for 5 minutes system decides that it's reason to lock screen again. And system locks screen again automatically when you unlock it.
Ubuntu 14.04 unity-greeter 14.04.6-ubuntu1 Steps to reproduce this bug: 1. Leave system inactive for 5 minutes (or more). 2. After 5 minutes of inactivity (5 minutes is default timeout for screen locking) screen fades to black (turns off) and system locks. 3. After screen locking just move mouse or press any key. 4. Lock screen (unity-greeter) appears with password prompt. 5. Don't type password and again leave system inactive for 5 minutes (or more). 6. After 5 minutes of inactivity on lock screen screen doesn't turn off. 7. Enter your password on the lock screen and unlock system. 8. System unlocks but in 5-10 seconds it locks again (because of 5 minutes inactivity on lock screen). 9. Enter your password on the lock screen again and unlock system 2nd time. 10. Now you can continue to work with system. Expected: On step 6: 6. After 5 minutes of inactivity on lock screen screen turns off again (without locking, because it already locked). On step 8: 8. System unlocks fine without automatic 2nd screen locking in 5-10 seconds. ** Affects: unity-greeter (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1299719 Title: 5 minutes inactivity on a lock screen causes 2nd locking To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1299719/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
