Description Adam Williamson 2013-03-20 06:38:28 UTC

My F19 live images have progressed to the point where I can build one that boots and installs - excellent. However, if I leave an installed F19 VM idle at a logged-in desktop until the screen blanks, then try to wake it up again, the screen stays blank. Switching to a VT works, and if I run 'DISPLAY=:0 gnome-shell --replace' , gnome-shell restarts and I can see the desktop again.

It looks like some kind of error in the screenShield.js code, according to a bunch of error messages I found in journalctl. The timestamps on these match up nicely with the attempt to unlock the screen; there are no similar messages before that time.

Comment 1 Adam Williamson 2013-03-20 06:44:03 UTC

This is with gnome-shell-3.7.92-1.fc19.x86_64 .

On my 'dirty' desktop system I haven't noticed this, but then I just remembered, I don't have screen locking enabled. If I manually lock the screen, it goes black, moving the mouse wakes it up. I can't hit 'esc' to raise the shield (which I should be able to), but dragging it upward manually works, then I can enter the password and unlock okay.

If I manually lock the VM, I don't see the bug either, but I do see the 'esc doesn't work' bug. So it seems like the timeout is somehow significant to this bug...

Comment 2 Adam Williamson 2013-03-20 07:00:08 UTC

If I enable locking on my desktop, I can reproduce the bug there too, with the same JS ERRORs.

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2013-03-20 08:46:38 UTC

I'm uploading my latest live image to assist in debugging this. It will be complete at:

http://fedorapeople.org/groups/qa/20130320-desktop-x86_64.iso

in approx. 50 minutes (it's currently there, but still uploading, so incomplete). sha256sum is:
