Bug Description

While testing the Kubuntu Noble daily live environment my session locked, though I never asked it to nor did I get the change to set any preferences, and refused to unlock.

Supposedly the default password is empty, but entering an empty password refuses to get it to unlock. I am forced to reset the VM.

P.S. I don't know where to assign this yet.

The default settings are to lock the screen after one minute. That's not even long enough to file a bug report.

Well I've tried to reassign this to Kubuntu, Ubuntu, kubuntu-desktop, kde-settings-screenlock and a whole host of packages that this thing claims doesn't exist. So I give up.

I fixed the package. I also fixed the default settings to fix this bug. Can you tell me the date on the ISO you are testing, because the fix only recently went in.
