"(the bug that upstream marked WONTFIX)"
Do you have that upstream link.
"# How many monitors do you use?
1 or 2"
When does it happen with duel monitors or without duel monitors or does
not matter.
"# If it is a laptop, do you use an external screen?
Sometimes"
Does it happen in one case but not the other.
** Changed in: xscreensaver (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
** Changed in: indicator-session
Status: New => Incomplete
** Description changed:
The session menu "Lock Screen" option does not work. I managed to get
Ctrl-Alt-L to lock the screen with Compiz, but the session menu item
will not work.
I tried:
making symlinks from gnome-screensaver to xscreensaver and from
gnome-screensaver-command to xscreensaver-command
adding a .service file to /usr/share/dbus-1/services/ called
org.gnome.ScreenSaver.service with the following content:
[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.gnome.ScreenSaver
Exec=/usr/bin/xscreensaver
I also tried that with
Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-screensaver
after creating the symlink.
I'm not too familiar with dbus so I'm not sure what else I should do.
Using gnome-screensaver is an option that follows dumping Gnome and
choosing another distro in desirability. In other words, no chance. If
gnome won't work with a real screensaver app that's additional
activation energy to move me to another distro.
