This one was nasty. The problem was that gnome-screensaver-dialog didn't appear after moving the mouse. That happens on all systems where (a) a supported fingerprint reader device is present (b) the user hasn't acquired a fingerprint It turned out that it perfectly works if gnome-screensaver is being run with --debug --no-daemon but failed in normal operation. After scratching my head for a couple of hours I found out that there is some evil stuff going on. gnome-screensaver-finger-print.patch contains a couple of fprintf statements fprintf (stderr, ...) Those statements cause the problem. I didn't dig any deeper to find out what is wrong with stderr when running in normal operation. There should be a big warning in gnome-screensaver-dialog.c not to use fprintf on stderr if one doesn't want to get in trouble. I've updated my patch and created a submit request. $ osc sr show -d 3980 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
