The gnome-session-flashback package (needed by our Greeter), depends on gnome-screensaver. > - There's no need to run Benjamin's dconf command to be able to lock > the screen with Win+L. Cool. Note, however, that it has nothing to do with gnome-screensaver: GNOME Shell handles screen locking itself. So, in what follows, I'll implicitly replace "gnome-screensaver" with "GNOME Shell's screen locking functionality", which is what you meant I guess :) > Is it safe to lock the screen this way in Tails? Given my results on #9408, it seems that it is. Before assessing this I'd like to go through #5684, its subtasks and blueprint to make sure we didn't forget anything, though. I guess it's on my plate as a side-effect of porting to Jessie ⇒ I'll do it and report back here. And then it would be awesome if someone reintroduced the code we removed in #8316 (display a Lock Screen button in the Shell's top-right menu), after making it conditional to having an admin password set. > My second question: > If gnome-screensaver remains in Tails Jessie, do we want to document > this (with all the due warnings for people without an administration > password) or do we think it will encourage people to set up an > administration password when they don't need to and we don't want to do > that? I think it would be great to document it, but not a blocker for 2.0 as long as the only UI is a keyboard shortcut. > And the third one: > If gnome-screensaver remains in Tails Jessie, are we OK with the current > UX for people with no password (blanking the screen but not locking it)? I'd rather disable it but I can live with it.
