Running KDE47. When I leave the computer for a sufficient time to let the screen saver kick in, a shake of the mouse reveals the basic login dialog with no background. If I attempt to enter my password into the field, no characters appear and the login fails. However, if I do a Ctl-Alt-Bspace, X is restarted and the full background pic is displayed along with the log in dialog, and it will accept keyboard entry...
Ideas, anyone?

You see the login prompt after a shake instead of just the box that asks for your password (without being able to change userid).

I have the best of all possible outcomes. I returned home this evening, tapped the mouse, the login box appeared, I started typing, and characters appeared, for the first time in many days; I did run a bunch of yum updates last night, so maybe something got fixed - thanks for asking
