resume from suspend doesn't present a locked screen
In F15 Beta, suspending doesn't lock the screen, so resuming from
suspend-to-ram doesn't ask you to enter your password--I think this is a security risk (or at least an inconvenience) because anyone could come along later and access your session if you forget to manually lock the screen. Would the desktop team consider implementing auto-screen-lock on suspend please? Thanks. -- desktop mailing list desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop |

Hmmm, when I suspend to ram, I get the lock screen on resume (and have for a while now). Is your machine current on updates?

Strange. I'm all up-to-date as well, but it has /never/ done this correctly for me. I most recently re-installed from the F15 Beta TC2 i686 Live image. Could this be a setting that is different on the Live image vs. DVD? -- desktop mailing list desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop |

Y'know what, this morning I resumed from suspend and it *wasn't* locked. So maybe this is just a brand new bug. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- desktop mailing list desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop |
