[Bug 878836] Re: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions
When you're at the lock screen, sound keeps playing as it should. And the microphone and camera keep working as they should. It would be a pain if a Skype call, for example, was effectively cut off just because the screen saver momentarily came on. Any accessibility options you were using during the session should also be in effect at the lock screen, because it's your session that you're unlocking, and ignoring them would be gratuitously annoying. And on Touch, apps like the camera may be available in a limited way at the lock screen, and when they are, they should store data for you and not for any other user. When you're at the login screen, on the other hand, sound output is cut off as it should be. The microphone and camera should also no longer receive input. Any accessibility configuration should be system-wide, because it's not necessarily you who is logging in. And on Touch, apps that store data can be available only if there is one user account. (In theory you could select a user and then launch an app before logging in, but selecting a user already prompts you to log in and may even log you in automatically, so there's barely any point.) This makes the greeter fundamentally different from the lock screen in many non-visual ways. So the answer to your question, Bence, is that this feature was not completely designed. For a long time it was treated as merely a visual design problem, without these other issues being tackled. -- 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/878836 Title: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/878836/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Some work on getting gnome-screensaver to look like Unity Greeter. Based on the git master version. You can test with ./src/test-window. It shows we can get GNOME screensaver looking pretty close to U-G, but is probably going to be too late for this cycle.

Ok Robert, your indicator-session patch got accepted and merged, I backported that and uploaded to precise, I uploaded gnome-screensaver as well so we are in before feature freeze, worth noting is: - the on locking the greeter doesn't select your user, it seems logic it would, could be an unity-greeter bug - when switching users with indicator-session (i.e pick guest session) you can vt switch back to your session, so there is a case where locking doesn't happen as it should - otherwise seems to work fine here Gunnar, due to the second issue I don't think it's a good idea to backport that patch in the current state -- 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/878836 Title: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/878836/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 878836] Re: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions
I'm afraid I have to veto this. It's way too premature to land this in precise. On the proprietary graphics drivers, VT switching is inherently unstable and causes lots of flickering due to them not doing KMS. Also, starting multiple user sessions at once (which is what this comes down to) has never really worked reliably on NVidia, and it's just plain broken on many (most?) machines. So far people have learned to not do user switching, but log out and back in. This forces the bug upon every NVidia user now, so as soon as the screen saver kicks in, you probably just have to reboot, losing all your session state. On systems with multiple monitors (all drivers) the current packages do not maintain the XRandR configuration from the user session, but switch back to the X.org defaults. This causes a lot of flickering, destroys the monitor configuration (wrong resolution, re-enabling monitors you previously disabled, etc.), and thus looks quite hideous and also is very slow. Most monitors I've seen take a few seconds to get back to their senses after an xrandr switch, and our Samsung 24 takes about 20 seconds. Please revert this. I'm afraid it still needs a lot of groundwork on both drivers and the XRandR handling before we can land this :-( -- 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/878836 Title: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/878836/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

* Backport Don't lock the session when switching to another one work from Robert Ancell, the screen locking is already done by consolekit and enforcing it there is problematic to i.e use the lightdm greeter as a lock screen (lp: #878836) This introduces a regression: If you switch to another session, the original one now does not get locked any more. You can switch to it with Ctrl+Alt+F7 without having to enter any password. There is nothing else that would do that for you, ConsoleKit does not do any screen locking. I also don't understand why it's necessary in the first place. Before these two changes, lightdm unlocked the screensaver just fine when using the greeter to switch back to the session. -- 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/878836 Title: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/878836/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 878836] Re: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions
Was just about to upload the gnome-screensaver fix and then I realised it doesn't work in this case: When you switch users (e.g. to guest) indicator-session locks the screen then does the switch. With this change this causes lightdm to both start a greeter and a new session. I think the correct fix is for indicator-session to not attempt the lock when running under lightdm and get the lightdm daemon to always lock sessions when switching away from them. ** Also affects: indicator-session Importance: Undecided Status: New -- 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/878836 Title: Unity Greeter - Use Unity Greeter to fulfil lock screen as well as login functions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/878836/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
