Xscreensaver does not activate by default on resume unless:
1. The time interval between suspend and resume is longer than xscreensaver
timeout.
2. There is an explicit script in /etc/pm/sleep.d which locks thescreen on
resume. For example:
#!/bin/bash
pid=$(pidof -o %PPID /usr/bin/xscreensaver)
case $1 in
hibernate)
;;
suspend)
if [ "x$pid" != "x" ]; then
x_owner=$(/bin/ps -e u | /bin/grep xscreensaver \
| /bin/grep $pid | \
/bin/awk '{print $1}')
/bin/su $x_owner -c \
"/usr/bin/xscreensaver-command -lock &> /dev/null"
fi
;;
thaw)
;;
resume)
;;
*)
exit 1
;;
esac
Personally I always prefer to have such a script to prevent unauthorized
access.
