Thinkpad T400
Linux 2.6.27-14-generic #1 SMP Fri Mar 13 19:54:51 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Kubuntu 8.10
KDE 4.2.1
I just recently started having this problem where my screen/session gets locked (the same as if you clicked "Lock the Screen" in the Kmenu) at random times when I am working forcing me to enter my password repeatedly. It seems to happen completely at random, but only when I am typing or moving the pointer; it never locks on its own if I just let the laptop sit there. It also appears to occur in random spurts: sometimes it will happen five times in 10 minutes, other times I won't see it again for a few hours.
As you can imagine, this is difficult to search on Google for because you mostly get bug reports about hardware or kernel lock ups. It also very annoying because it is difficult to get work done when this keeps happening.
Has anybody else experienced this problem? Any thoughts for a solution?
