More information: This is the message I get when I try to lock the screen in command line: $ gnome-screensaver-command --activate ** Message: Screensaver is not running! $ gnome-screensaver-command --lock ** Message: Screensaver is not running!
If I start the screensaver using this command: gnome-screensaver The command: $ gnome-screensaver-command --lock now locks the screen, but the lock menu in the user applet do nothing.
