NOTE: If you have no password set, locking wonвЂ™t work no matter what you do. Set idle time to 1 minute and 5 seconds.Set it to вЂњTurn off the monitor(s)вЂќ when idle.In the вЂњIdleвЂќ section in lxqt-powermanagement:.check the box to lock the screen after 0 minutes.cycle after 0 minutes (probably unnecessary but it doesnвЂ™t hurt).If you can actually disable the monitor between the blanking and the screensaver starting, youвЂ™ll be set. You were on the right track, actually, but had too big of a time gap. Because of this, I have made an upstream feature request. It can вЂњblank the screenвЂќ but all that means is that it basically rewrites the screen with blackness before starting the screensaver or just staying that way if itвЂ™s set to blank only.ДЄdditionally sucky is that lxqt-powermanagement can handle both locking and disabling the screen, but it cannot accomodate multiple actions. That looks much better particularly as I have customised it but that is a subject for another day.The thing that sucks here is that while xscreensaver has some power management features (none of which are actually enabled by default), disabling the screen is not one of them. Now when I open the laptop rather than the unlocked desktop or the ugly XScreensaver window appearing I get the LightDM login screen. Lock the screen when the user is idle Enable automatic screen lock /etc/dconf/profile/user /etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-screensaver /etc/dconf/db/local.db/locks. This enables me to put the laptop to sleep and lock the screen simply by closing the lid as I have set that as the default action elsewhere in the Power Manager settings. On my laptop I enabled вЂњLock when Going to SleepвЂќ.

Now XfceвЂ™s Power Manager settings has gained an additional вЂњSecurityвЂќ tab which allows you to configure Light-locker. I did a restart but IвЂ™m not sure if that is really needed.

I remove xscreensaver, this isnвЂ™t strictly necessary but as it isnвЂ™t being used there is no point keeping it. xscreensaver file exists, it overrides any settings in the resource database. But you still have the ugly Xscreensaver screen to type your password. You can disable the screensaving so it just blanks the screen. However for laptops that can be taken anywhere and for desktops in public areas, screen locking is an important part of your security set up. It is a relic from the distant past of CRT monitors. Screensaving isnвЂ™t needed these days with modern monitors. Xscreensaver provides both the screensaver graphics and screenlocking for security. The only real issue is that because the GUI does not let you edit autostart entries, I have to delete the xautolock entry and add it again if I change my mind about how long it should start the screensaver after. Korora like most distros includes Xscreensaver with Xfce. xautolock -time 5 -locker 'gnome-screensaver-command -lock'. If like me you dislike XScreensaver and its ugly unlock screen there is an easy alternative that is actually better integrated into Xfce.
