Title:
When display is unlocked via VNC, screensaver does not lock screen
again after inactivity
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Consider the following, real scenario:
I have my office computer set to automatically lock after 5 minutes. I
leave for the weekend and the following day I SSH to my computer with
a local redirect to :5900 and start x11vnc -display :0. I unlock my
screen and proceed to use the computer over VNC. I then disconnect
from VNC. I later return to my office computer to find it unlocked, in
the state I left the session on VNC.
Expected behaviour: the screensaver automatically locks the computer
after 5 minutes of inactivity, regardless of the VNC session.
Ubuntu: 12.04.5 (Precise)
gnome-screensaver: 3.4.1-0ubuntu1
