Bug Description
On my Sony VAIO PCG-GRZ610 laptop, suspend and hibernate are working correctly - except that resuming from either state does not require a password - my desktop comes back exactly where I left off. This as currently updated at 08:14AM EST on 04/29/06.
The current versions of (possibly) pertinent files are:
acpi: 0.09-1
acpid: 1.0.4-1ubuntu10
acpi-support: 0.73
gnome-power-
powermanagement
powermgmt-base: 1.23
(Let me know if I missed anything...)
I first brought up gnome-power-manager and looked for an option such as "Require password on resume". Not finding one, I then set gnome-screensaver for "Lock screen when screensaver is active" and forced suspend. On resume, again no password was required.
I then opened gconf-editor and selected apps/gnome-
lock_on_
lock_on_hibernate
lock_on_suspend
lock_on_
The long description from lock_on_hibernate (and _suspend, with appropriate edits) reads:
Whether or not to lock the screen when the computer wakes up from a hibernate. NOTE this option is only used if lock_use_
Okay, I set lock_on_hibernate and _suspend to true, set lock_on_
I tried (I think) all possible permutations of the 4 lock keys, with no success.
Also, in my opinion, screensaver locking should be completely separate from power management locking - i.e. I don't want screensaver locking but I do on resume from hibernate/suspend.
As ever, let me know what else you might need from me on this one...
