Can confirm this is still a bug in 9.10 (64 bit) using gnome-screensaver 2.28.0-0ubuntu3.4. Only happens when Likewise reports the users password is about to expire.
However I agree with comments #3 and #5 as this is a showstopper for AD integration and adoption of Likewise in enterprises. Many corporations have strict policies about automatically locking desktops after a certain idle time, also many AD sites start warning the user weeks before the password is actually expiring. Each time that combination happens the users desktop becomes unusable. Doing a kill -9 of the gnome-screensaver is not an acceptable workaround for normal users, and it will even irritate the more technical users. Suggest this bug be marked as high importance. -- unlock screen impossible using likewise-open5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
