Re: anecdotal report on discoverability of gnome screen "shield"

Hello,

What you've described is the pre-lock screen, sort of (for want of a better name - maybe somebody should correct me).

You'll want to click and drag the screen upwards. The screen should then, tablet-like, slide up to reveal a login prompt. This caused me some confusion too, at first.

Cheers!

Subject: F19 fresh install, updated, now unavailable for an hour

      Hello,

   I just did a fresh install of F19 on my Lenovo Thinkpad T430, followed by
applying all 200+ updates and a restart. The restart led to a screen where
I have time and date displayed in the center of the screen, with an arrow
animation appearing below it every three seconds or so. There is a bar on
top with volume control and battery indicator. Mouse pointer is alive, and
time is being updated. There is nothing else except the wallpaper.

   It has been like that for an hour.

   Should I give it more time? Or hit the power button? Or something else?

   Thanks!

      Take care
      Oliver
