First stated that this occurs every time is incorrect. It only happens when I have an additional monitor attached. <99% of the time> I was on travel and discovered that if there is /no/ additional monitor, the login prompt /does/ come up after the screensaver has been triggered. Machine type is DELL Precision M6500 with ATI video from gmesg : acpi device:24: registered as cooling_device8 input: Video Bus as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A03:00/device:22/LNXVIDEO:00/input/input10 ACPI: Video Device [VID] (multi-head: yes rom: no post: no) yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: CardBus bridge found [1028:02ef] yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: CardBus bridge to [bus 04-07] yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: bridge window [io 0x2000-0x20ff] yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: bridge window [io 0x2400-0x24ff] yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: bridge window [mem 0xf0400000-0xf07fffff] yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: bridge window [mem 0xf0800000-0xf0bfffff] yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: Using CSCINT to route CSC interrupts to PCI yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: Routing CardBus interrupts to PCI yenta_cardbus 0000:03:01.0: TI: mfunc 0x01001b22, devctl 0x66 I have this same problem ... with only a single monitor. 100% of the time. (In reply to comment #3) > I have this same problem ... with only a single monitor. 100% of the time. Is this with Fedora 13 64 bit or 32 bit ? What kind of system ? desktop or laptop ? do a "sudo dmesg" and list out the video specs so they have more info.

Correction. This happens on the DELL only with additional monitor attached. It happens with the HP pavillion every time, with or without additional monitor, and or when hooked up to KVM. This also happens on an HP 6715B (RS690M) using the radeon driver. This machine had been setup with a second display but the second display has since been disabled and the configuration removed. This issue occurs when the machine is not in any way connected to a second display. When the screen has been locked, the screen is blank and touching a key unblanks the screen, shows the fedora desktop background without any login prompt for less than 2 seconds after which the screen goes blank again. The mouse pointer can be moved around the screen but that's about it. Dropping to a text console gives a login prompt, but just entering a (valid) username at the prompt, without having had the chance to enter any password, immediately produces the message "Login incorrect", the screen is refreshed and the login prompt reappears. CTRL-ALT-DEL can be entered at the text console which restarts the machine. I was almost thinking this had something to do with pam modules but my desktop (using nVidia 8800GT) has a nearly identical (fedora 13) setup and never has exhibited this issue. Upgraded to FC14, the gnome-screensaver in FC14.x86_64 has the same bug. My upgrade to FC14.x86_64 solved this issue. Besides upgrading I ran: $ fixfiles relabel after the upgrade. That's about all I can relate to the solution on my end. This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
