Package: gnome-screensaver Version: 3.6.1-1 Severity: important Quite often I'm unable to unlock the screen. This happens almost always when the computer is not used locally for serveral hours.
The screen look similar to http://i.stack.imgur.com/ejs4C.png After pressing Enter the arrows moves but that's all. I tried the unlock the screen remotely following the advice of http://askubuntu.com/questions/341014/unlock-login-screen-using-command-line but it doesn't work for me: jsbien@debian2050pc1:~$ DISPLAY=:0 gnome-screensaver-command -d ** Message: Failed to get session bus: Error spawning command line 'dbus-launch --autolaunch=c5dd83e04d31e5407fe1366551d54718 --binary-syntax --close-stderr': Child process exited with code 1 jsbien@debian2050pc1:~$ export DISPLAY=:0 jsbien@debian2050pc1:~$ dbus-send --session \ > --dest=org.gnome.ScreenSaver \ > --type=method_call \ > --print-reply \ > --reply-timeout=20000 \ > /org/gnome/ScreenSaver \ > org.gnome.ScreenSaver.SetActive \ > boolean:false Failed to open connection to "session" message bus: /usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: No protocol specified Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.
