This bug is still active. The only way to get control of the desktop again is by switching to a terminal, logging in a killing the process of gnome-screensaver. In some cases there are two pid's for gnome- screensaver.
Perhaps gnome-screensaver should ensure that its process is terminated properly if the password of the user is correct. ** Attachment added: "Alt+Tab between desktop and gnome-screensaver after unlocking screen" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/604649/+attachment/1834251/+files/gnome-screensaver.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/604649 Title: Screensaver still runs after being unlocked -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
