After a fresh install of Mageia 3 beta1, the screen locker of KDE is active and the user is prompted to give his password. With the KDE control center, I can change the delay, select Screen saver with diaporama, but I cannot remove the necessity to give the user password to unlock the screen. The file ~/.kde4/share/config/kscreensverrc contains: Lock=false but that's false! The locker is still active...
(In reply to comment #0) > The file ~/.kde4/share/config/kscreensverrc contains: Lock=false > but that's false! The locker is still active... You indicated a fresh install but was /home left over from previous install? Reason I ask, there is no kscreensverrc. There is $ cat kscreensaverrc [ScreenSaver] Enabled=false LegacySaverEnabled=false Lock=false LockGrace=60000 PlasmaEnabled=false Timeout=300 I suggest you create another account, say junk, log into junk, use the kde control center and disable and test. I disabled locker for two users on 4 different installs, and they all disabled without problem.

To test Mageia, I use only one partition which is formated. Then I am sure that I have a completely fresh installation. I have created the user junk and open/close/open a session with KDE. You are true: kscreensaverrc is not created. You are false: kscreensaverrc is created as soon as you modify anything in the screen locker... And the locker is active!
