KDE 4.2: No password required when resuming from suspend to disk
Hi guys,
so far suspend to disk works great for me. I'm using KDE 4.2.1 and pm-utils already came as a dependency with it. So I didn't have to configure anything apart from adding the resume parameter in Grub's menu.lst. The rest all worked out of the box.
When I choose "Suspend to disk" from the Kickoff menu, my machine shuts down and on reboot resumes without any problems to my KDE 4 desktop.
Now my question is how do I make KDE request a password on resume? So far anybody can get access to my desktop when resuming from suspend to disk.
I've set a password for my screensaver, but that didn't help.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Blackhole

System Settings -> Advanced -> Power Management, choose "Lock screen on Resume".

Sorry, forgot to mention that: checkbox "Lock screen on Resume" is ticked, but KDE doesn't request a password. Is this a bug?

Could just do a screensaver-lock for now?
