Description Fedora-user 2023-06-30 16:02:25 UTC
I have a working fprint sensor. When locking the screen and keeping it off for a while, and logging in again, I cant log in with the password. I need the fingerprint too, which is pretty dangerous, if the sensor may fail.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. lock screen, having a fingerprint sensor initialized
2. wait a while (?)
3. unlock again using password
Actual Results:  
after entering the password and pressing enter, nothing happens. When I use the fprint sensor, it immediately unlocks

Expected Results:  
both ways should work. This could be a good feature, but not as a bug.

kscreenlocker-5.27.6-1.fc38.x86_64
