Ubuntu
gnome-screensaver package

how to disable the screensaver unlock password option

Asked by Pepe

I have been on since 8/04, and it has been pleasant. However I have just installed 10,04 and if I leave it for a little somebody locks it and I have to password again. I do not want to have it locked. I tried the Systems, Administrator, Keyboard and deleted it but it still locks. Maybe if I restart. Thanks

I am sorry, I did not specify. I do not want to contact the geek department. Is there anyone there that understand GUI? It must be there somewhere. Thanks

Pepe, on your top panel, go to System, Preferences, Screensaver and take the tick out of the box next to "Lock screen when screensaver is active".

*Go to: System –> Preferences –> Screensaver*
***Then un-check the second check-box*
