Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 3.6.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Usually unlocking crashes Gnome and after a while gdm as well. After
that I am unable to restart gdm (it doesn't do anything) and have to
restart the machine. Such situation happens only in my specific 
configuration, that is when I have external monitor attached and 
built-in lcd display turned off. If I have both displays turned on
or am using only built-in display and external unattached - unlocking
works just fine.

I have experienced this issue on sysvinit and systemd as well. I 
didn't have such issue using Gnome 3.6.

Kind regards,
