Bug Description
Updated from v. 14.04 to 16.04.1 via Software Update. When I activate Screen Lock and leave it alone, I have to reboot my system to make it active (i.e., the system "goes to sleep"). I didn't have this problem with v. 14.04. Otherwise, things seem to be OK...
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+
Memory: 4G
Hard Drive: 250G Samsung SSD
Additional info: if I have my machine sitting at a "normal" login (i.e., after reboot), I have no problems. It's only when I activate "screen lock" that I have to reboot my machine via hardware "reset" button or power cycle.
