*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
Public security bug reported:
I upgraded to 8.10 (beta at the moment) and then checked what else was
running... guidance-power-manager was installed (not kde-guidance-
powermanager!) so I apt-get removed it.
Result: on suspend (either running /usr/sbin/pm-suspend, pushing the power
button which is assigned to suspend by kpowersave, or selecting suspend to ram
in kpowersave) lock the screen, even though that option is set in kpowersave.
kpowersave shows the message that it's suspending in all three cases as well.
Expectation: screen is locked on resume.
The Screensaver is set to auto, nothing else in particular configured.
Implication is, that anyone who wakes up the computer gets access to
whatever's open.
** Affects: kpowersave (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Visibility changed to: Public
