I was experiencing similar problems to post #32 above using VMware Player 6, latest version.
Dual monitors. I don't recall seeing the problem with only one, i.e. the built-in laptop one. Problem did not occur every time - only after some varying amount of run time. AFAIK I don't use ldap, but I will look later. I will post auth.log later. ~$ dpkg -l unity Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-====================-===============-===============-============================================== ii unity 7.2.4+14.04.201 amd64 Interface designed for efficiency of space and ~$ My workaround was to send a hangup signal to compiz from VT1. I say was because as of three kernel updates ago, the problem has become worse. Now when the screen timeout occurs when my mouse is on the Win7 VMware VM, when I move the mouse to the host screen (which is the built-in one), the login session crashes and restarts as if I sent ctrl- alt.backspace, thus wiping out all running apps. Needless to say, this is an unworkable situation. I am happy to provide any helpful information I can to help target this problem. Let me know if my situation belongs in different/another bug report. FYI, I much prefer the old bug. I might try reverting kernel releases using grub and see if that helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311316 Title: After locking screen there is no input field to type password for unlock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1311316/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
