Hi Sebastian, thanks for your email. 1. specific actions: superkey +L > nothing happens. ctrl + alt + L > nothing happens. using terminal to lock screen as follow:
gnome-screensaver-command -l ** (gnome-screensaver-command:34478): WARNING **: 11:56:50.135: unable to send message: Timeout was reached ** Message: 11:56:50.135: Did not receive a reply from the screensaver. 2. I expect the screen to lock and only to unlock with password. It used to do that before but not any longer. 3. The behaviour I encountered as above. I think it is an application that is blocking screenlock from doing it. I do not know how to identify which app is it and how to fix it.
