[Bug 1494454] Re: Lock screen on wakeup from screensaver - feature request

 

xscreensaver has had this feature for as long as I know.

Under power management settings, configure the following to your
discretion:

Automatically lock the session: "When the screensaver is activated"
Delay locking after screensaver for "5 seconds"
Lock screen when system is going for sleep "enabled"

I'm using "Xfce Power Manager" to configure the above.

Title:
  Lock screen on wakeup from screensaver - feature request

Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  It would be really good if there could be a way of setting it so that
  during the time that the screensaver is on, if there is any
  interaction which wakesup the machine happens, for it to automatically
  ask for the password like it can do after a set time if set. So that
  if the screensaver turns on, and say somebody wiggles the mouse to
  wake it up, it requests for the password before it allows them to log
  in.
