I am running 12.04 and after an update I suddenly found that when I close

it to need a password when the lid is lifted
Is it acutally suspending (sleeping) ok? Usually the power led flashes
when suspended. Assuming it is suspending then go to System Settings
Brightness and Lock where there is a checkbox "Require my password
when waking from suspend".
If it is not actually suspending then have a look in System Settings >
Power and make sure you have Suspend as the option for when you close
the lid.

Hi Thank you for your reply, in Settings>Power under 'When lid is
closed' is says Suspend, but it doesnt, when I lift the lid up there is
no log in screen it just goes straight to the desktop
