Suspend locks the screen despite gconf settings to the contrary

[Carey Underwood]

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Having unset all of the lock options in /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock (specifically, 'suspend' and 'use_screensaver_settings'), the system still locks the screen on suspend.

Expected: No annoying password prompts.

Actual: Annoyingly useless password prompt appears on resume.

Although the machine is connected via a WPA protected AP, the password for that is stored in an unencrypted keyring; the laptop is configured to login and connect without a password.

I know the cause of this,
The screen lock is now done by indicator-session, as it talks directly to upower.

I have this hack patch that always disables this:

Of course now I prefer to just remove gnome screen saver altogether.
Bugs bugs and more bugs. Thats what Ubuntu is full of.
