I believe this is handled by dconf now in Ubuntu 12.04.
There are 2 setting, not sure which one is correct. Try these 2
commands in the Terminal:
sudo gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen 'true'
sudo gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-enabled 'false'
Then restart.
You can also do this graphically by installing dconf-editor with sudo
apt-get install dconf-tools.
Then sudo dconf-editor.
Navigate to the keys org>gnome>desktop>lockdown: disable-lock-screen and
also org>gnome>.desktop>screensaver: lock-enabled and set per above.
Let us know if these work.

Another one...
I need to disable the lock screen for all users. (Edubuntu 12.04) I
tried the commands on this page...no luck
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/DisableScreenLock
My server runs "autologin" kiosks in the school library in addition to
the machines in the classrooms and labs. I can't have the machines
blanking and locking when they are inactive. It's an elementary
school...we're not really worried about security....kids do most of
their work in the cloud anyway....I need the flexibility in this case.
Any help?
I'd like to disable screen locking....and set the screen blanking for
a ridiculously long time, like 3 or 4 hours.
