It's here again... #288 #289
Duplicate.
I'm a little confused...what is it a duplicate of? 288 and 289 are both closed?
Hi @leigh123linux, you misunderstood my comment. This is not duplicate. It's an ancient error that was fixed a long time ago and now reappeared in LM20. At least it seems to be the same error. Please reopen it. Log in is invisible when suspend was started by closing the notebook lid.
Try removing ecryptfs-utils, it breaks almost all screensavers
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1085706
The setuid error is old and unrelated to this current issue.
Can you run:
dconf dump /org/cinnamon/ > some_filename
and pastebin the file? Redact any personal info if you'd like. I mainly want to look at power and screensaver settings.
The screensaver has had pretty much no changes from 4.4->4.6, other than build-related things, but I'll have a look at that as well, just in case. On the other hand, the entire package base has changed underneath us, so who knows what surprises may await.
Can you guys also let me know how you got to Mint 20 - upgrade or fresh install. Thanks
Hi there,
dconf output attached
Fresh install of Mint 20. I am running the latest mainline kernel, but the same issue happens with the current Mint kernel.
@leigh123linux I removed ecryptfs-utils, restarted notebook, closed lid, opend it up again after a few seconds - and both errors were gone:
@jdtanner please check this also to be sure.
@mtwebster It was an upgrade from LM 19.3 with Clem's tutorial. If ecryptfs-utils is the culprit, you could install it yourself and see what's happening.
I don't know if I installed ecryptfs-utils by myself or if it's in the normal install. I used to encrypt a single folder in /home with ecryptfs but switched to gocryptfs a while ago...
It is installed, but I can't reproduce this.
Hmmm, I reinstalled ecryptfs-utils to countercheck:
Is your home encrypted?
/home is not encrypted, just a single folder in /home/... with gocryptfs
No encryption here...standard install only.
I didn't had the invisible login error since 2 days. Could it have been fixed by cinnamon-desktop 4.6.3? Perhaps I didn't restart my notebook after the update immediately, so I saw the effect one day later... Whatever the reason is - for me this seems to be gone on both notebooks.
Hey there! Just wanted to report that this happens to me as well, using Fedora 32, so I suspect is not a Mint specific issue. I do not have any weird things installed so far, it happened pretty much since the fresh install. My cinnamon version is 4.6.5 and I have a Dell XPS9350.
It seems that this is not happening anymore on Cinnamon 4.6.6.
I updated to 4.6.6 a couple days ago IIRC. Still happening. In Fedora cinnamon-screensaver is at 4.6.0-1 version, which seems the latest version in this repo (there's only 2 commits after that tag).
I'm using Cinnamon 4.6.6 on Manjaro and the same problem has just started occurring for me.

switching to tty2 and then back 'solves' it, but it happens every time my screen locks, either as part of the screensaver or if I manually lock it.
cinnamon-screensaver-pam-helper: pam_ecryptfs: seteuid error
I reproduce the same error by just doing
tail -f /var/log/syslog
and in another terminal
cinnamon-screensaver-command -a
and log back in.
Though I don't have any issues with functionality.
Just noting here that I doi not use any type of ecryptfs or similar software.
Hi, I can confirm the same observations as @Mintulix on Cinnamon 4.6.7 after a manual upgrade from 19.3 (mintupgrade did not work, I ran into https://github.com/linuxmint/mintupgrade/issues/27), on a LUKS encrypted partition. Login screen was frozen on resume. apt remove ecryptfs-utils
fixed it, and after apt install ecryptfs-utils
it still worked...
EDIT 28/08/2020: after a little more than a week of experiencing no issue it happened again, so I removed ecryptfs-utils for good
Experiencing this issue. Fresh install of linux mint 20, cinnamon 4.6.7, kernel 5.4.0-48. Ran system update, rebooted, same problem. Removed ecryptfs-utils, rebooted, same problem. Every time I close the lid unless I manually lock the screen first. Laptop is an HP zbook if that matters. No encrypted partitions or folders.
Hi, same problem. Kernel: 5.8.0-23-generic x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: Cinnamon 4.6.7 wm: muffin dm: LightDM Distro: Linux Mint 20 Ulyana base: Ubuntu 20.04 focal
I am experiencing the same issue in LM 20 Kernel 5.4.0.-52. This seems to be a problem with rendering the lock screen. If I either type in my password blindly or I hover the mouse over the part of the screen where the password box would be, I get a cursor and can enter the password that way.
I'm experincing this issue as well in HW matebook x pro Kernel 5.4.0-60, I can fix it by hitting laptop's poweroff button, then it doesn't freeze anymore, I can then choose no
to not shutdown/reboot
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-screensaver/issues/342#issuecomment-657100802 doesn't work for me

My situation is the same, same machine. Kernel 5.4.0-65. I've just got used briefly changing screen brightness up and back down using hotkeys. So I guess the issue is something related to rerendering process.
I experienced this issue for quite some time on Mint 19.3 and it continues today. I'll happily offer my logs if it will help.

Issue Taken from: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1842818#p1842818
I've found that Linux Mint 20, after i suspend the laptop by closing the lid and i have actived the screensaver (and lock screen) after suspend, the screensaver isn't showed, nor the box for introduce user/pass, the cinnamon desktop is showed and i can move the mouse, but i cann't do anything more... nothing is running after suspend with screensaver activated (lock screen) after suspend.
To add to the above, blindly typing your password and pressing enter will present you with a functional desktop. There are multiple other reports of similar behaviour on the forums, but nobody appears to have posted a bug report.
Steps to reproduce
Expected behaviour
Upon waking from suspend, interactive lockscreen should be presented.
Other information
System logs seem to be catching the following error from cinnamon-screensaver (screenshot below):
pam_ecryptfs: seteuid error
