I should add that this is on an HP8540w notebook. nVidia driver 295.40 on Quadro FX 880M 1GB Running Twinview dual screens on docking station (lid closed): HP LP2475w (DFP-1) + DELL 1908FP (CRT-0)
"Had the issue today. Was working nearby with the screen timed out for more than 5 or 10 mins (black/blank). I assumed it was locked. To wake it, I started typing my password and hit enter only to find that I had sent my password to a co-worker over IM. I was able to chat with him for at least 30 seconds before the screen locked. I beleive this to be a huge security risk. Please promote this to a high priority." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390989 Title: [SecurityRoadmap] Locked screen shows the desktop Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Ubuntu 9.04 When I lock the screen and arrives the next day, when I touch the keyboard and wakes the screen to enter my password an image of the desktop is shown under a very short period of time before the password prompt is shown. If someone has a camera it's possible to take a photo of the screen of how it looked just before it was locked. I'm using dual screen and a Nvidia built in driver. The image is shown in the laptop monitor, maybe on the extra screen that's cloned (hard to see because it's syncing to long to see). Please let me know if you need more information.
