I REinstalled the "lock screen" package. now I choose "system > lock screen" to get the screensaver (real lock), then in order to prevent freezing I click ctrl+alt+f4 to get the command line.
unfortunately choosing "system > logout > switch user" will STILL show my 'protected' desktop to less then a second before demanding a password, & if stay on the screensaver will freez my desktop! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881147 Title: alt+f7 gain full access to a password protected account To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/881147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
