Description William Jon McCann 2006-11-13 19:21:18 UTC
Possibly a result of the patch that just landed...

1. Lock screen
2. Move mouse
3. Click cancel
4. Move mouse
5. Click cancel
6. Move mouse

The dialog takes a few seconds to appear where it normally appears immediately.

Here, I have been noted dialog taking a few seconds to DISAPPEAER.
Comment 2 William Jon McCann 2007-01-05 18:35:00 UTC
When I turn off user-switching I still see this problem.  The bt from:
gdb --pid `pgrep -f 'gnome-screensaver-dialog'`
at the time of the hang.

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2007-01-05 19:52:41 UTC
is the backtrace consistently in syslog or does it move around in pm_sm_authenticate a bit?

I wonder if pam_unix is doing some sort of rate control to prevent bruteforce attacks.
Comment 4 William Jon McCann 2007-02-06 21:08:21 UTC
Probably some pam thing...
