    screenlocker: don't leave behind screensaver processes · 26a8ddc0
    Wolfgang Bauer authored
    Currently the screen locker just kills the greeter (kscreenlocker_greet)
    when the screen is unlocked by the user during the grace time.
    But apparently this can leave behind running screensaver processes
    launched by the greeter, see the bug report (which has the highest
    number of votes of all open bugs AFAICS).
    
    This patch changes this to only terminate the greeter, and adds a signal
    handler to the greeter to exit gracefully in this case.
    The signal handler exits with return code 1, so that it is not possible
    to circumvent the password input by just sending a SIGTERM. (the screen
    locker restarts the greeter in case it doesn't quit with exit code 0)
