Public bug reported:
I have GNOME configured to lock the screen when the screen is blanked,
and to blank the screen when the lid is closed:
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power lid-close-battery-action 'blank'
org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-delay uint32 0
org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-enabled true
This worked fine in Jammy: whenever my screen was unlocked and I closed
my laptop lid, it locked immediately, i.e., if I immediately reopened my
lid, the screen was locked.
After having just upgraded to Kinetic, however, sometimes when I close
the lid it locks as described above, and sometimes it just... doesn't,
i.e., when I open the lid again the screen is unlocked and I can just
keep working.
I have been unable to determine what the factors are which control
whether the screen locks when I close the lid.
There is a moderate security implication here, as it's problematic for
someone's screen not to lock when they think that it did.
