Killing the whole login is pointless because you'd be killing that which a locked screen is meant to protect. Killing just the X session (client) holding the lock is unacceptable because killing a user's apps or shell is worse than the bug itself.
If we can get the screensaver to just XUngrabKeyboard and XUngrabPointer before it attempts to grab them itself, then that would be great. I'm just not sure if X lets you ungrab grabs you didn't create, so it may not work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49579 Title: screen doesn't lock when some menu is open To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-screensaver/+bug/49579/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
