[Bug 1292451] Re: screensaver re-locks itself after unlocking if the configured screen-off timer goes off while screen is locked

 

I run Lubuntu Wily (upgraded from previous version), and I consistently
have the problem that the screen re-locks once after being unlocked.

I have opened the "Light Locker Settings" from the user preferences
menu. It refers to the xfce power manager for setting screensaver
settings. At the same time it seems the Light Locker Settings duplicate
the screen lock settings of said power manager. They were both
configured for the same locking behaviour, so maybe they just do the job
twice every time?

Title:
  screensaver re-locks itself after unlocking if the configured screen-
  off timer goes off while screen is locked

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Set screen-off timeout to 1 minute
  2. Configure screen to lock immediately when screen goes off.
  3. Lock screen manually (Ctrl+Alt+L)
  4. Wait for 1 minute
  5. Notice that screen doesn't turn off
  6. Unlock screen
  7. Wait a couple of seconds (~10 or so)
  8. Notice that screen re-locks itself.
  9. Repeat steps 6-7 and notice that the screen doesn't re-lock itself this time.

  There are two bugs described here: 
  1. Screen does not shut off if the screen is locked manually before the idle timer (see step 5).
  2. Screen re-locks itself after unlocking if the idle timer goes off while the screen is locked (see step 7).
