Package: mate-screensaver Version: 1.16.1-1 Severity: important I was using ibus to type some Chinese, and stepping away for a few minutes, locked my screen with alt-ctl-l
When I came back and tried to enter my password to unlock the screen, I was still typing Chinese via ibus in the password field! And the screen locker ignored the keyboard shortcut (typically meta-space, but configurable) to switch back to normal english keyboard output. I was finally able to unlock the screen without resorting to pulling the plug, by selecting "login as a different user", getting the desktop login screen back, and logging in there as the same user for which the screen was locked. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (700, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_HK:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mate-screensaver depends on: ii dbus-x11 1.10.18-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.22.0-1 ii libc6 2.24-11 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.14.8-1 ii libcairo2 1.14.8-1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.10.18-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.108-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.36.5-2 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 13.0.6-1+b2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.50.3-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.22.11-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-2 ii libmate-desktop-2-17 1.16.2-2 ii libmate-menu2 1.16.0-2 ii libmatekbd4 1.16.0-2 ii libnotify4 0.7.7-2 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.6 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.40.5-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.40.5-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b3 ii libstartup-notification0 0.12-4+b2 ii libsystemd0 232-24 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.4-3 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxklavier16 5.4-2 ii libxss1 1:1.2.2-1 ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.1.4-1+b2 ii mate-desktop-common 1.16.2-2 ii mate-screensaver-common 1.16.1-1 ii mate-session-manager 1.16.1-1 Versions of packages mate-screensaver recommends: ii mate-power-manager 1.16.2-1 Versions of packages mate-screensaver suggests: pn rss-glx <none> ii xscreensaver-data 5.36-1 -- no debconf information
