Public bug reported:
I filed this bug against kdesktop because this is the package to which
kdesktop_lock belongs. This could also be considered to be an acpi
"bug". This bug is filed against Kubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn" with KDE
3.5.6 packages.
When I resume my laptop it would be nice to automatically show the
password dialog so I can immediately start typing my password.
The way it is now:
- resume laptop
- nothing happens, screen stays black
- after some time you realize that screensaver might be running, you press any
key or move the mouse to wake up the screensaver
- password dialog is displayed
Actually, all this is already implemented, but it does not work for KDE.
Just take a look at /etc/acpi/resume.d/90-xscreensaver.sh This however
depends on the presence of (a running) xscreensaver. No such process is
running in KDE (but you'll see "/usr/bin/kdesktop_lock --forcelock" and
"/usr/bin/kblankscrn.kss -root").
Steps to fix this bug:
1) find a way to poke kdesktop_lock so that it shows the password dialog. I
found no such way using DCOP. And I don't consider "dcop kdesktop
KScreensaverIface quit" to be an option as it does not ask the password at all
:-(
2) adapt /etc/acpi/resume.d/90-xscreensaver.sh to use the solution found in
step 1)
