[Bug 552495] New: kscreenlocker can't be unlocked when fingerprint reader is activated
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552495 Summary: kscreenlocker can't be unlocked when fingerprint reader is activated Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: aosthof@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Development In openSUSE 11.2 RC2 I've enabled the fingerprint reader via YaST, which seems to work (no error occurs). Then, I've restarted the machine to see if it works with kdm - it doesn't, but yes, I already found a corresponding bug. Anyway, I can log in normally by entering user name and password. But after some (idle) time, I encountered a severe problem: when kscreenlocker gets activated, one can't unlock the screen anymore. It says: "The session is locked. Removing the lock has failed." or something like this, exact German wording is: "Die Sitzung ist gesperrt. Aufheben der Sperrung fehlgeschlagen" All three buttons (Change user / Unlock / Cancel) are deactivated. So, only way for me to workaround this problem is to go on e.g. tty1 and do a "killall -9 kscreenlocker" So, for a 'normal' user this could get very frustrating... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
