Bug#851399: gdm3 + xfce4 based setup + locking/suspend: often forced to press strg+alt+F1 to get an unlock screen

[Michael Fritscher]

Package: gdm3
Version: 3.22.1-1
Severity: important

The title says all: on 95% of the cases I need to press strg+alt+f1 to get the gdm3 unlock screen - before I get only a blank black screen. Sometimes I even need to restart the complete system.
