| | "Locking your computer screen" stays for a very long time Hi, After the power settings turn of my screen for example, or after stopping the screen saver, it often happens (but not always) that the "Locking your computer screen" appears and stays for more than 5 minutes before the login screen shows up (without any reaction to inputs). The "Resuming your computer" screen after resuming from hibernation also stays for such a long time. Does anyone have a hint on how to stop (control) this ? |
