Public bug reported: After the screen locks I am unable to log back in because the screen with the login prompt is black, and the screen on my laptop just shows the Ubuntu logo.
Furthermore, if I then unplug the external monitor (in an attempt to force the log in option to be displayed on the laptop) the laptop screen then goes black and I can't do anything at all. I can't reproduce this if I select "lock screen" from the UI, but it happens reliably if it locks due to inactivity. Other info: - I am running a fresh install of 14.04 - I have it set to lock after 5 min of inactivity, and require login after lock - I have an external monitor, configured to be on the left side of the laptop screen ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: lockscreen -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
