Bug Description

In Ubuntu 9.04 I have problem with password prompt during resuming system from suspend to RAM. Screen should be locked, but sometimes it is not locked. (Someone wrote me this is caused by running firefox). - This is big security problem for me -

This only happens to me when i right click on something then close the lid on my laptop. it also makes it take longer to suspend as well

This happens to me always (close lid and manual suspend) and indeed is a bit of a security concern to me too.

I have /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/suspend set to true.
