Bug Description

-- Feisty --

On my laptop (Linux mop 2.6.20-8-lowlatency #2 SMP PREEMPT Tue Feb 13 05:21:37 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux):
When laptop lid is closed, the screen is turned off. When the lid is opened, Gnome asks for the password of the currently connected user.

The good password being written in, the process freezes if one validates the form by [enter] on the keyboard (it seems it/Gnome/something selects the "Cancel" option instead of "Unlock", as the bold border around the pre-active button switch from the "Unlock" to the "Cancel" button after [entering]--then, all grayished and freezed). If one clicks with the touchpad/mouse on the "Unlock" button, no harsh farewell.

The Ctrl-Alt-Backspace combination, which close session, works as an unfreezing tip.

Thank you for your bug. Do you still get the bug? Does it happen every time? Do you get anything to .xsession-errors when you trigger the bug?
