I might be a bit naive here, but couldn't you simply always lock the screen on suspend in Unity is being run, and always respect the "lock screen" option if a gnome-shell session is being run?
In all cases though, I agree that the screen should never be locked if autologin is activated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869765 Title: Screen locked on lid close, suspend, user switch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/869765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
