Hi Lovell Flinn, This are the questions you haven't answered: # What desktop environment does this problem occur in? (GNOME, XFCE, KDE, etc.) # Do you use visual effects? (System/Preferences/Appearance/Visual Effects) # Does the problem still occur if you disable visual effects? # Does the problem still occur if you use the "blank screen" screensaver? # Is the "Lock screen when screensaver is active" setting checked in System/Preferences/Screensaver? # Is this a laptop or a desktop machine? # How many monitors do you use? # If it is a laptop, do you use an external screen? # Do you have the hamster-applet application installed? This applications has been known to cause screen locking issues.
Regarding your questions, you can change the gnome screensaver configuration from the file ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-screensaver/%gconf.xml. But you can also change it from System > Preferences > Screensaver, so I think there is no need to do it from terminal. I didn't really get your other question.
