Title:
  No GUI method to disable screen lock on lid close event

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I close my laptop lid, and open it again, the screensaver is locked. I'd
  like to change this behaviour, I've checked the screensaver preferences and the
  only option that mentions locking the screen ("Lock screen after") is unset. I
  think it makes more sense to lock the screen on lid close dependant on the
  setting of "Lock screen after" option in screensaver preferences
  This is on a recently updated hoary, xscreensaver version 4.16-1ubuntu3.
