[Bug 287769] New: Screen doesn't lock after resume (from suspend to disk)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=287769 Summary: Screen doesn't lock after resume (from suspend to disk) Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: Ulrich.Windl@rz.uni-regensburg.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Usually when I resume from suspend to disk, the GNOME desktop is restored and the screen locks (I have an automatic screen saver enabled after a few minutes of being idle). However occasionally the screen does not lock, and any user who turns on the computer could resume work. Maybe it's related to moving the mouse during restore, but I really don't know. As a security feature, a password should be verified after resume (like in Windows/XP). -- 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.

Yes, starting the screensaver, and other processes, with some delay helped us improving the login time by a few seconds, so it is really something we don't want to remove, unless until the login time is greater than 5 seconds or so.
It is great to reduce login time. But you write that delaying screensaver and other processes improved by a few seconds. I would like to know how big the effect of just the screensaver alone would be. I currently cannot imagine that starting a screensaver application needs that much ressources. But maybe i'm wrong here.
I don't see how we can solve this, because making the power manager wait for 30 seconds (if the user sleeps just right after loging in) doesn't seem a good solution.
If you let your user sleep right after login, then i let my user activate the screensaver or suspend right after login. ;)
I'll look at other possible solutions.
Can't the screensaver be started on demand when someone tries to activate it explicitely (the user or power manager)? Or can we just delay the permission to suspend (not whole power manager)? But beeing able to suspend without locking the screen is a security problem which should be fixed in any case. -- 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.
