Kubuntu 9.04 does not lock screen after resume from suspend-to-ram, posing a security problem

Resuming from suspend-to-ram does not lock screen. This is a serious security problem in real life, where just opening your laptop cover will give the intruder access to the desktop.
I do not know if there is a setting somewhere that will change this, but screen-lock-on-resume needs to be enabled by default ASAP

Please note the following differing behavior:
1. Kickoff - Leave - Sleep == no locking on suspend/resume
2. Power Management Icon (on Panel) - Actions - Sleep == proper locking on suspend/resume

This seems to be fixed in 9.10

Thanks for the report :)

This is still an issue in kubuntu 9.10
I have confirmed the behavior that Sandeep mentioned...:

Works fine for me with Kubuntu 10.04. If this is still a problem with Kubuntu 10.04, please report this as a bug to bugs.kde.org.
