Title:
  Disabling the suspend and hibernate locks via gconf-editor doesn't do
  anything (from Intrepid to Oneiric included)

Bug description:
  These steps once worked in Ubuntu:

  - open terminal
  - type: sudo gconf-editor
  - navigate to /apps/gnome-power-manager/locks
  - disable lock_on_hibernate
  - disable lock_on_suspend

  Even with these two locks disabled, I still get asked for my password
  when I resume from suspend.

  It's so annoying to enter your password each time you resume from
  suspend and hibernate... (especially if you had to enter a password to
  setup the system-wide disk encryption a few seconds before).

  work around: hibernate/suspend by others means. e.g. "ctrl+alt+del"
  menu or pm-suspend (pm-hibernate) on cli
