Not sure which packages is the culprit, but Nicolas will know and reassign if needed :-)

It is xscreensaver so it is for me :-)

@Ben

Hi,

I forgot to ask for some precision: can you give me the duration in minutes of the different periods of time you talk about?  I need to verify them with our default configuration of xscreensaver (for the last part of the bug report: "If you wait for such time that the monitor is powered down, sometimes the screen-locker is presented, sometimes not.", I wonder if it is not because we have configured xscreensaver to power off the screen after the same duration as to lock the screen; maybe this particular configuration causes a race condition).

Hi,

I have made available version 5.35 in core/updates_testing and in tainted/updates_testing for Cauldron.

Does that version corrects the problem?

Best regards,

Nico.

Hi,

In fact, the version 5.35 is in core/release for Cauldron.

Best regards,

Nico.
