Bug Description

NOTE: This may be filed against the wrong package--not sure where the source of the problem lies (is it gnome-screensaver?).

When I close the lid of my laptop (Sony pcg-v505ec) gnome-screensaver locks the screen. I cannot find a way to disable this.

I disabled "LOCK_SCREEN" in /etc/default/acpi-support, but this had no effect.

When the screensaver activates without the lid first being closed, it does not lock (screen locking is disabled in the gnome-screensaver preferences).
