Bug Description

After sliding the lock screensaver out of the way, either a) the screen is grey [debian logo] and unresponsive, or b) you get the dialog to enter your password but keystrokes are not accepted. Only way out is to reboot.

It's possible that this is resolved by https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686800 ; https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688700 was marked a duplicate of it, though it has a better title. If this is indeed the fix, then an urgent backport ahead of 3.6.1 would be advisable. Being forced to reboot after resume from suspend is not really that fun.
