Current Behavior

Rarely, once per maybe 50 times, it just doesn't react to anything after resuming. No animation. It shows the background picture, but that's it. I have to reboot to get past it

Expected Behavior

Shouldn't get stuck

Reproduction Instructions

No repro. It just happens sometimes (rarely).

Environment

Output of i3lock --version:

i3lock: version 2.14.1 © 2010 Michael Stapelberg

i3's config:

bindsym $mod+Shift+Delete exec systemctl suspend

exec --no-startup-id xss-lock --transfer-sleep-lock -- /home/goose/scripts/lock.sh --nofork

That shell script:

#!/bin/bash
i3lock -i /home/goose/Pictures/www-main-3.png

Sounds like your keyboard might have an issue. Try connecting an external keyboard when that happens to see if that’s it.

We haven’t had any reports of anything related on i3lock, so I very strongly doubt the issue is at all with i3lock.

Hmm :/
I haven't had these issues without i3lock, I think. But I'll keep this in mind

I think I just ran into this, but it's only been one time in many years of using it. In my case the i3lock process exited and was not running, which I verified over ssh. I don't have a core dump, I assume it crashed long before I got home and when I did go to unlock my computer my screen was already effectively unlocked except with the overlay still on top. My mouse and keyboard were able to interact with my windows even though I couldn't see them. No ECC errors were logged and I'm on a stock AMD CPU which hasn't shown any signs of instability.

Restarting i3 via one of my shortcuts was enough to fix the session, at least for now.
