Bug Description

When I try to unlock the computer (after some minutes of inactivity when screensaver has been activated) I am presented with two unlockers. The first one is quite normal, but the second one is kind of strange. It has black gnome3-style panel at the top and Debian wallpaper (like this: http://orig14.deviantart.net/ef84/f/2014/230/9/4/debian_wallpaper_by_takaju-d7rr1sn.png). Both accept my password but, after the second unlocker the cinnamon panel disappears. It becomes, say, invisible. The start button (on the keyboard) works and Alf+F2 works but I have to restart the computer to get the normal cinnamon look back (ctrl+alt+esc doesn't help).

Christopher,

thank you for helping me to make Ubuntu better. :)

At the moment I've switched to Cinnamon 3 (via embrosyn ppa), so I'm not
sure I can help with this issue.

Maksym Minenko, one could boot into a live environment via http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ to capture the data without any PPAs/3rd party software installed.

By the way, there were no such occurrence with Cinnamon 3. So, maybe it's no point of trying to fix this bug. Maybe it's just the time to move cinnamon 3 package into ubuntu 16.04 repo?
