If that's true then this bug should be reassigned. I'm still not able to find any logs for xscreensaver at all. But I now think that I'm not running xscreensaver at all - I think I must be running a screensaver built into KDE. (I've uninstalled xscreensaver* but my screensaver is still running) I think this needs to be assigned to kscreensaver instead. Sorry for the confusion.

This is still happening. I've not found a way to fix it. There was an earlier comment about checking xscreensaver logs but I don't know where these logs are.

Sorry, only just seen this reply. (My spamfilter thinks anything not sent via BTS is spam) Where is the xscreensaver log? I cannot see anything in Xorg.log but I'm not sure what I'm looking for.

Bug#520633: xscreensaver: screen does not lock if switched to virtual terminal
The recent behavior change in xscreensaver was in the case where it could not grab the mouse or keyboard or both. The old behavior was that it would lock anyway, possibly resulting in a screen that could not be unlocked. The new behavior is that if it can't get both grabs, it does not lock the screen. So, the behavior you're seeing suggests that when you VT-switch away from X, the X keyboard and/or mouse become ungrabbable. That's weird. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#520633: xscreensaver: screen does not lock if switched to virtual terminal
Package: xscreensaver Version: 5.05-3 Severity: important If you are switched to a virtual terminal e.g. ctrl-alt-f1 then the X session does not lock. The old behaviour in etch: when you switched back to the X session ctrl-alt-f7 the screen would momentarily display the old screen before the screensaver appeared and the password dialog popped up. (assuming you had been switched away for long enough) In lenny there is no locking at all, you can switch to ctrl-alt-f1 for arbitrary lengths of time and when you switch back ctrl-alt-f7 the screen is not locked. (IMO, even the old behaviour with etch was a minor problem, if you were quick with a camera you could grab a snapshot of what was on the screen. But the current behaviour is a serious bug.)
