Being a more or less "normal" user, I find this behaviour highly unexpected.
When I decide for auto-login, I do decide that access control to my computer is carried out by my house door and its locks, I do not want to be bothered with password prompts after every resume. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1740792 Title: Automatic login still requires user password after suspend/hibernate Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gdm3 package in Baltix: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 17.10 Release: 17.10 gnome-control-center 3.26.2 When I set Ubuntu to automatically login a user the user still has to enter their password when resuming from a suspended session. The only option I can find to fix this is to disable the lock-screen completely, which I don't want to since I still want it to be an option to manually lock it. Setting Privacy > Screen Lock to off doesn't affect this behavior at all. The solution seems to be to use dconf-editor and change org.gnome.desktop.screensaver.ubuntu-lock-on-suspend to false.
