Hello,

in fedora 13, the gnome lock screen (System tab) does not work !
After an upgrade from 11 to 12 to 13.
I noticed that the option "lock screen does not exist if I log in root
(X11).
Is there a line command to do it ?

Hi!

I don't use GNOME, but I hope I can help you anyway.

First of all, check the gnome screensaver is really running. For
instance, from a terminal window try to run:

ps -fe|grep gnome-screen


Thank, you are right. I need to laod gnome-screensaver.
It is not a service. So, when/where should I start it ?


If it is running, try to run the following command from a terminal window:

gnome-screensaver-command --lock


Best,

-- Marco
