** Description changed: - When running lightDM, the "Lock" option under the gnome-shell User Menu, - does not work. Clicking on this does nothing but if you try to lock - screen using keyboard (ctrl+alt+L) the it works and also all subsequent - clicks on "Lock" option start to work. + [IMPACT] + * When running gnome-shell from lightDM, it is not possible to Lock screen or suspend from the user/system Menu. + + * This is due to gnome-screensaver no longer auto-starting when running a non-fallback + gnome-shell session. We need to explicitly start gnome-screensaver in this case. - ProblemType: Bug - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 + [TESTCASE] + 1. From lightDM log into a gnome-shell Session + 2. From user Menu try to Lock or Suspend. It wont work. + 3. using keyboard lock screen with ctrl+alt+L, this forces gnome-screensaver to start. + 4. again try and lock or suspend and it will work. + + [Regression Potential] + None. We are just forcing gnome-screensaver to start for the shell-on-lightdm use case. + + + == Original Bug Report == + When running lightDM, the "Lock" option under the gnome-shell User Menu, does not work.
