It is impossible to unlock after a long tim

[CRAG666]

@jbuchermn Usually I never leave my computer without using more than 10 minutes, in any case I better turn it off. However, yesterday I left the computer on without use for around 30 minutes when trying to unlock, another lock screen would appear and so on in an endless cycle. In the end I had to turn off the computer

[jbuchermn]

Can you post a log?

[CRAG666]

newm_log

[jbuchermn]

Can you describe in more detail what happens? I see a lot of "Locking for user..." log entries which should only be fired once you hit the keybinding for lock or timeout passes...

[CRAG666]

I was working, so I left the computer for at least 1 hour without activity, when I tried to unlock it I couldn't, because again it showed me the message to insert a password and if every time I tried to unlock it was an infinite loop.

[jbuchermn]

So it did unlock and then lock again immediately? Or did it act like your password is wrong?

Exactly that

[jbuchermn]

Which one? :D

[CRAG666]

HA HA, All :)

[CRAG666]

Everything you ask happened, it was an infinite loop

[jbuchermn]

Which one? Unlock (lock screen disappears) and immediately lock again, or not even unlock (lock screen never disappears)

[CRAG666]

@jbuchermn It disappears for a few seconds and then the lock window appears, that happens infinitely.As I say the behavior is approximately when you stop using the equipment for one hour

[jbuchermn]

Okay, that helps :) is this consistent? I e every time you don't use it for an hour? Can you post anlog of the panel (newm_panel_log)?

[CRAG666]

Of course, I will publish a log, thanks

[hekatonkheirex]

I happens to me too. I don't know if the op has a different greeter, but I'm using gdm, if that helps.

[CRAG666]

i am us greetd

[jbuchermn]

How about a log of newm and newm-panel basic?

[hekatonkheirex]

newm log

newm-panel-basic

[jbuchermn]

What happens once you install thefuzz?

[hekatonkheirex]

It works if I don't wait to the screen to turn off. If the screen turns off it I have to force restart the laptop (power off with the power button).
