Still happening on 21.10. Any news on how we can remove this.
For me the annoying thing with this is that I have my laptop closed, and I plug in second monitor. I open the laptop and it shows me the lock screen.
In the lock screen I cannot type anything its non responsive. I unplug the second monitor and instead of letting me type it just closes the lockscreen and I can use the laptop normally.
Then I replug the second monitor and it shows the unresponsive lock screen again. So to be able to use 2 monitors after this I have to restart my laptop.
I assume you mean how to resolve this. That will mean digging into the gnome-screensaver code to figure out what happens / or doesn’t happen when a monitor is disconnected.
In 22.04 I observe a similar and reproducible issue: with the external monitor connected and the desktop locked, simply turn off or disconnect the monitor and the desktop will be unlocked on the laptop monitor. I often find the desktop unlocked because the external monitor goes to sleep.
same here, using 22.04.1 LTS. When the external monitor is connected and I lock the session, disconnecting the monitor unlocks the session.
If I have no monitor connected and lock the session, connecting and disconnecting a monitor unlock the session.
Is there any progress on this since it has been reported in April 21?
There should at least be a CVE assigned, so users of ubuntu budgie are informed they use an insecure OS.
