What were you trying to do?
I started xss, it locked the screen. I came back a while later (more than
20 minutes, but this machine is private) and unlocked the screen, using
my password (which I typed correctly).
What's wrong:
It unlocked the screen, showed my windows for less than a second, then
X restarted, effectively logging me out (killing my programs and Xsession).
What should have happened:
It should not have restarted X.. it should have returned me to the way
things were before the screen locked.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Have not looked.
