Public bug reported:
This bug is related to #439068.
When running 10.04 LTS desktop with multiple users and user switching,
if a password protected account is logged on and a guest user with no
password is logged on. From the password protected account I select the
guest account ( in the power button icon menu top right ), the locked
screen window from gnome-screensaver appears. It does not accept the
blank password.
Work around :
1. Select "switch user"
2. Select guest user from GDM window, blank password is accepted.
This is different from the mentioned ticket as I am not using auto login
and am switching between password protected accounts and the guest
account.
