Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apport
When the screen saver has locked the screen and a password is required to unlock it, apport displays a dialog 'administrative privileges needed'. This dialog is not accessible because of the screen saver lock; the screen saver cannot be unlocked because of the dialog... The only way to get out is to use e.g. CTRL &ALT & F1 or a network login, to get a command prompt, and kill the apport process responsible for the dialog. ** Affects: apport (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Apport needs administrator privileges when screen saver has locked the screen (password) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285763 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
