Bug Description

If the screen is locked with simple locker it will lock after 15 minutes, but when prompted for a password hitting any key will result in the lock screen going away and the desktop revealed. Resulting in no password needed to access the pc. I have waited the extra 60 seconds at least, to make sure it locks. Suspend wakeup brings up the lock and it works fine. User login requires password as normal.

Hardware:
-Lenovo T500 using intel or amd built in card (I've tested with both for giggles)

Software:
-Clean install of Kubuntu 13.04 with beta ppa enabled
-xorg-edgers enabled
-wine ppa enabled
-3.11 rc 2 kernel

Happens to me as well on Lenovo W520 with Kubuntu 13.04. Not sure though if it happens every time, but at least often.

update, this bug seems to be solved for me. ive updated via the backports ppa to kde 4.11 and can not get this bug to crop up. @vesse what version of kde are you using? also try switching from the simple locker to the widget locker and then back again.

Unfortunately this means that there will be no more bugfixes for 13.04. It is also recommended that you upgrade, if you have not already.

Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find, and thanks for your understanding.
