Yes. That is the present behavior. Though if you read the entire thread above... I think the desklock settings and the screensaver settings should be seperated, thus allowing unique custom settings as well. :) I'll get to it... though a little slow as my wife just gave birth to a bouncing baby boy yesterday afternoon. :D > So when I set "Enable X screensaver" leaving "Lock when the screensaver > starts" unchecked, but use "xlock" as my custom screensaver/desklock > command (since I have problems with PAM), this command is used every > time the screensaver activates (and of course locking my screen which I > don't want). > In order to have locking and screen-saving decoupled, I think there > should be two custom command lines, one for the screensaver and the > other one for the desklock command.
