The problem on my system was solved. 'gnome-screensaver' was not
launched after login caused the problem.

It seems gnome lock screen button applet need gnome-screensaver to be
lauched in advance. After recent update gnome-screensaver did not
start automatically after login. I seems individual screen saver
environment was slightly changed after recent update.

So to fix my problem is just lauching 'gnome-screensaver' manually
after login or using 'gnome-session'.  With regard to xscreensaver,
just I tried it because gnome lock screen button had not worked
correctly. Both packages were installed correctly.

Thank you for your kind advice.
