Package: xfce4
Version: 4.12.3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Wait until the screen is locked. Sometimes need to wait a bit longer even after
it is locked.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Press key and move the mouse.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Nothing happened.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
The password dialog should pop up.
* Some comments?
This issue does not exist in Jessie. It starts happening after upgrading to
Stretch.
If wait long enough after the screen is locked, I have to use "Ctrl-Alt-F2,
Ctrl-Alt-F1" to bring the screen back on. However, when it is on, the desktop
manager (GDM) pops up, instead of the xfce password dialog.
