Unfortunately turning off screen locking in the gnome-control-center also prevents locking when resuming from suspend, when the laptop is suspended by closing the lid. If the laptop is suspended from the user menu instead, resuming from suspend does require the user password still, just like it should. The fact that no password is required to laptop usage after coming out from suspend when it was suspended by closing the lid, is possibly a big security issue. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Turn screen locking off (gnome-control-center -> Brightness and Lock) 2.Close laptop lid: laptop suspends 3.Open lid and try to start using laptop, no user password necessary. 4.In contrast, click on suspend from the user menu: while resuming, password is asked for no matter the configuration of "Turn screen locking off" in gnome-control-center -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
