Public bug reported: I have a fairly new installation of feisty.
I just dragged the 'lock screen' button from the 'add to panel' window onto a panel. Clicking it does not lock the screen, though choosing 'properties' does show the screensaver preferences. >From the command line I get kapu% gnome-screensaver-command --lock ** Message: Screensaver is not running! shouldn't the panel widget show an error or start the screensaver, rather than dumb insolence? ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Summary changed: - lock screen panel button does nothing + lock screen panel button does nothing when screensaver not running -- lock screen panel button does nothing when screensaver not running https://launchpad.net/bugs/84858 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
