[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1699670] Re: Gnome screensaver lock always responses "incorrect password" when last active window's language is not the language of the password
I hadn't mention that I've been using lightdm. After switching to GDM the issue was resolved. ** Description changed: Environment: - OS - Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS, DE - GNOME Shell 3.20.4, gnome-screensaver 3.6.1 + OS - Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS, DE - GNOME Shell 3.20.4, lightdm, gnome-screensaver 3.6.1 Prerequisites: - say, you have 2 language layouts installed - their layouts/character tables are completely different, so there is no chance you can type your password correctly using any language keyboard layout (e.g. you have en/ru, but not en/de etc.) Actual behavior: When the screen is being locked while your active window has the language which is not your password language set, you won't be able to log in back.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1362848] Re: ubuntu 14.04 after install nvidia binary driver 331.89 black screen and freeze
@ajat-pandita I wouldn't say that #15/#18 is a confirmed workaround. It's a workaround for SOME people. I tried both approaches and some other (even tried 3.18 kernel). Problem still persist for my hardware (Intel + GT750). Seems like something was broken with nvidia drivers since the moment my 14.04.1 had been updated to 3.13.0-45 kernel. I even tried re-install system. It didn't help. Maybe it's something in my ~/.config or another of such kind of directories (because i keep my /home partition untouchable when i re-install system) - i don't know. If someone who's going to tackle this problem needs any logs i will gladly provide them.

The same problem is here. After an update (approx. 26-27 Jan) to 3.13.0-43 (45 now) there is no way to reboot in nvidia - mode. Tried different drivers version (331 to 346) and their 'updates' variations. With any nvidia drivers installed i'm getting black screen instead of ligthdm invitation.
