Public bug reported:

The screen does not lock even though
- the "lock" switch is activated in the "brightness and locking" screen
- "lock screen after" is set to "screen turns off"
- and "ask for my password..." is checked

This problem can be fixed by :
- activating manually the lock screen once (ctrl + alt + L)
- or typing "nohup gnome-screensaver &" in a terminal

so I think the problem is that gnome-screensaver does not start
automatically or crashes when it does.

Ubuntu 12.10
gnome-screensaver 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
