How to set lock screen on suspend? I use MATE desktop

Hi there.

I can't figure out how to set lock screen on suspend in MATE. There isn't an option anywhere (or I didn't find).

Actually I don't know what Mate uses for this purpose, but you could try sxlock as an alternative and hook it, like described on the GitHub page, in systemd for suspend.

Edit: You may try to activate "Lock screen when screensaver is active" (Suspend does not lock).

A short google query for "mate lock screen on suspend" will turn up one link to an old MATE bug report on github, as well as as a link to the Mint forums complete with images explaining why it does or does not do this within the first five results. Have you found and tried both without success?
