Fresh install of tumbleweed, lock screen doesnt work.

As title says, fresh install. Lock screen doesnt work. It crashes gnome-shell, and if invoked again, crashes out to gdm. Suspend is also messed up and will suspend and resume, but will not ask for password on resume.

Any tips?
Thanks,
Andrew.

I started keeping tabs on what happens when the lock fails, and gnome-shell restarts on me:

Did you install Tumbleweed from a DVD .iso or Network install .iso? It might be that the liveusb has had a corruption, you could test the liveusb at the boot screen.

  1. Immediately after any new install, you should run “zypper dup” to ensure your install has installed any recently released fixes, patches and new features

For this and additional things you can or should do from pre-install to first steps after initial install, my recommendations are in my presentation slide deck

  1. You need to verify the installed Desktop, that it’s Gnome (various other Desktops often install Gnome components like XFCE). This is because nowadays the lock screen isn’t managed by the OS, it’s managed by the Desktop.

  2. Just to doublecheck you’re setting the lock screen correctly, you should describe what tool you’re using.
