Hi Benedict, thanks for reporting this! I can confirm this.
I think this is normal behavior, the touchscreen doesn't get locked at all when the keyboard is open. When you slide the switch once it gets locked, and again, it gets unlocked. Repeat steps 1 and 2 but touch the screen instead of using the switch.
This has been fixed in package mce 1.8.121+0m5 which is part of the internal build version 2010.22-3 (Note: 2010 is the year, and the number after is the week.) A future public update released with the year/week later than this internal build version will include the fix. (This is not always already the next public update.) Please verify that this new version fixes the bug by marking this bug report as VERIFIED after the public update has been released and if you have some time. To answer popular followup questions: * Nokia does not announce release dates of public updates in advance. * There is currently no access to these internal, non-public build versions. A Brainstorm proposal to change this exists at http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/view/undelayed_bugfix_releases_for_nokia_open_source_packages-002/
The problem reported here should be fixed in the update that was released today for public: The Maemo5 update version 20.2010.36-2 (also called "PR1.3" sometimes). Please leave a comment if the problem is not fixed for you in this update version.
