Summary: Lock Screen is Totally Broken and User Cannot Unlock
Computer
Classification: Plasma
Product: kscreenlocker
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

CRITICAL BECASUE USER IS LOCKED OUT OF HIS/HER COMPUTER
SUMMARY
***
After idle, lock screen permanently locks computer. Putting pasword does not
bring back the desktop. User is locked out of his/her desktop.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Let KDE (default settings) lock itself after walking away from the computer
(make yourself a tea/cold drink)
2. Come back
3. Put your password in, press Enter.
OBSERVED RESULT
Only wallpapers is seen (I have the same photo for lock/login/wallaper). No
desktop after putting password in. Pressing Enter or space bar or clicking does
notihing. No desktop. Cannot unlock. Only blocked wallpaper is seen. One must
hard reset destroying/corrupting data (opened softare, work,...).
When it happens? Randomly before. Now more often than not.
EXPECTED RESULT
Revert the changes of unlocking computer to the working state of KDE 5.xx. or
KDE 6.0 (not 6.xx). Let the user to unlock his computer without destroying
data/disk corruption with hard reset.
Settins changed from default:
only layout from "folder view" --> "desktop view" (I am not the lowest
denominator of MS Window expat).
