Bug#733026: kde-workspace-bin: kscreenlocker_greet -- unable to unlock session, unable to type password.



Package: kde-workspace-bin
Version: 4:4.11.3-2
Severity: important

On Debian "testing" I can't unlock my KDE session any more.

When I lock session manually (or if "kdm" configured for auto-login)
"kscreenlocker_greet" do not allow me to enter password -- it simply
do not respond to keyboard at all. Strangely enough password prompt is
unable to receive focus when I click on it. Button "unlock" is
perfectly clickable but of course it just says "unlock failed" (due to
empty password). When I SSH to locked machine I kill
"kscreenlocker_greet" which is immediately started again but this time
it respond to keyboard so I can unlock my session as expected.

This regression appeared just recently as I've never have anything
like this on Wheezy. For what's it worth I spotted the problem on my
notebook (Intel drivers) and on workstation with "fglrx" driver.
