Bug#922095: light-locker: requires manually switching virtual terminals to unlock
Package: light-locker
Version: 1.8.0-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Off a fresh install with no changes to the system, light-locker doesn't
respond after locking the screen without manually switching VTs. Mouse or key
input just leaves the screen blanked (and backlight off). Manually switching
to VT1 and back to VT7 shows the "This session is locked, you'll be
automatically redirected to the unlock dialog in a few seconds" message. At
which point I can log in.
But it's difficult, takes more time than I want to spend unlocking, and may
not be intuitive to a new user who doesn't know to switch VTs.
