Thank you MoarningSun, for pointing out that there are different config files for different users when using gconf-editor. The lock problem was driving me crazy, since I always used 'gksudo gconf-editor'. Thus i think this is a good advice (most of the time):
** Don't use 'gksudo' in combination with 'gconf-editor' ** While it's quite logical to have different config files for different users, it's not that obvious. I guess a lot of unexpected behavior occurred, because the settings of the wrong user were changed. -- Disabling the suspend and hibernate locks via gconf-editor doesn't do anything (from Intrepid to Karmic included) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/255228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
