Tested with Lubuntu 14.04 (32 bit & 64 bit) up to date. I think the interaction between light-locker, xfce4-power-manager and X is quite confusing.
I had to disable the screensaver for a notebook connected that plays music to an audio amplifier. It was hard to disable it... Finally I did: 1. Moved to the left (never) the screensaver buttons at light-locker-settings. Apply button. ======================================================================== This generated: ~/.config/autostart/light-locker.desktop with this Exec line: Exec=light-locker --lock-after-screensaver=0 --no-lock-on-suspend --no- late-locking However, if I disable light-locker with light-locker-settings the Exec line has nothing Exec= I think this is a bug, because in this case light-locker runs on my system (despite the Exec=) with its defaults. ~/.config/autostart/screensaver-settings-desktop is also generated. This file controls the X screensaver settings. The Exec line says: Exec=xset s 0 dpms 0 0 0 So, the screensaver for the X will be disabled and dpms will not be applied for the screen (man xset). 2. Move to the left (never) the screensaver buttons (OnAC/Screen, OnBattery/Screen) at xfce4-power-manager-settings =============================================================================================== If I don't make this second step, screensaver continues to working and the screen is also locked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1315898 Title: Light-Locker not working in Lubuntu 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/light-locker/+bug/1315898/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
