[SOLVED] Unable to login after screen lock... bug?
Hi,
during lock-screen BunsenLabs ask me again username and password (and that's OK).
But if I enter (correctly) my parameters (the same that I use at login) I get a "wrong password" error.
What I'm doing wrong? :S
Thank you!

Hi, I'm using default Bunsenlabs setup. If PC goes in sleep mode, when I try to login again I get a "wrong password" error (even if it is correct).

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to login after screen lock... bug?
I'm definitely not an expert on this, so I'll let someone else jump in to answer. But, just out of curiosity, when you are at the login screen, after you come back from sleep mode, if you hit ctl + alt + f3 can you successfully log into that text console prompt?

Try pressing backspace a few times before entering the password (sometimes the spacebar is used inadvertently to wake the system and this is entered in the password field) and make sure that capslock is disabled.

Try pressing backspace a few times before...
...SHAME ON ME! 
It was a space before the username: usually I press spacebar to awake PC from sleep mode.
Thank you!

Train yourself to use a benign key like Fn, Esc, F1, Super, Ctrl, etc...
-edit- Marking this [SOLVED].
I don't care what you do at home. Would you care to explain?
