Anyway,
one of the issues I am finding is that the gnome-screensaver is
triggered on start up and runs in the background, but despite being
configured to kick in after 20 minutes of inactivity, it doesn't. I
also prefer the xscreensaver which can be configured to lock the screen
after a bit and does so reliably.
You can use xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver:
aptitude remove gnome-screensaver
aptitude install xscreensaver

Considered doing that, but without some switch magik, apt wants to
remove the whole kit and kaboodle of GNOME, which is not what I wanted.
So, although the most obvious solution, it won't work.
