Re: Suspend to disk -> resume: only locked when invoked from Kickoff



New 'development' after some more testing ...

After I had verified that Kickoff did lock the screen, I apparently didn't check Lancelot's behavior 
again (since before I could reproduce it always), but Lancelot now does lock the screen, 
consistently :)
But the Lock/Logout widget still suffers from the above mentioned issue.

He also said in that report that "Lancelot in KDE SC 4.4 is using the global KDE mechanism for 
suspend". 
Does someone know whether the Lock/Logout widget is _not_ using that mechanism and/or why it's not 
behaving correctly?

Above questions still stand, but now mostly for the Lock/Logout widget.

I do wonder and like to know why Lancelot only started behaving correctly _after_ verifying/testing 
that Kickoff did lock the screen. And I like to know if it's a KDE or a Debian issue.
