Description Zsolt Sági 2008-11-13 18:22:50 UTC
The suspend option of the KDE4 start menu (currently kickoff style) doesn't even offer locking the screen during a suspend/resume cycle, moreover the KDE4 counterpart of kpowersave also fails to lock the screen despite promising to do so (it's configured to do so, and even gives me a popup which tells that the screen was locked). It only locks the screen it the laptop lid triggers the suspension, however suspension is mostly onsuccesful (maybe because of the kernel).

I assume, KDE should alway lock the screen BEFORE suspending/hibernating, when configured to do so. Even when the suspend is triggered by the KDE start menu, because letting the screen unlocked may be very unsecure.

The behaviour for hibernate is the same. The screen is locked when hibernated via sleep button and not looked when it is hibernated via the button in powerdevil.
