I have this problem now with 14.10 previously I had 14.04 installed and the screensaver was very problematic - it would frequently not turn off the screen by itself, but Ctrl-Shift-L always worked.
Now with 14.10 screensave never turns on and Ctrl-Shift-L never works. Typing gnome-screensaver-command -l into a terminal does lock the screen as expected. gnome-screensaver-command -q reports the screen saver is inactive Under settings I have Dim screen when inactive ON Blank screen 5 minutes Turns off wireless devices ON (although I'm sure I've turned that off several times before) Hmmm the Turns off wireless devices appears to turn them off immediately - not when the screen blanks? So if I switch that OFF, then it just immediately disconnects my wireless - is that intended? Probably not related. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389650 Title: Lock screen not working with Gnome 3 (gnome-shell) and Ubuntu 14.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1389650/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
