on HP pavilion G6, Intel i3 cpu, 8GB RAM, integrated graphics.

When closing the lid of my laptop in Kali-rolling, the login-screen appears completely red when opening the lid again.Clicking the mousebuttons make the screen turn blue, and red when clicked again. switching to tty1 with [ctrl] [alt] [f1], and then killing xfce4-session brings up the login screen (GDM3), and i can resume my work in xfce4.

Steps To Reproduce

have xcfe4 as environment
login
close the lid
open the lid again

this bug always reproduces on my laptop

What version of the kernel are you using?

Do you have a fully up-to-date kali-rolling system?

this is because xflock4 command is using slock instead of gdm. just edit /usr/bin/xflock4 and remove the lines containing the slock command. Or else, you can just install lightdm and light-locker and these should automatically fix the problem by using lightdm as your default display manager and correctly locking the screen with it.
