[solved] Xubuntu: Disable the login screen on xscreensaver

Post by Tommes »

Hi there,

EDIT:
Does anyone know how to disable the Login Screen on XScreenSaver ?
Cause, on wakeup from standby xscreensaver want to re-login the user joggler
and the user must type in the password ...

I've tried some options in the xfce-screensaver & -energysettings but nothing helped.
After wakeup from standby everytime the xscreensaver will pop up with password-protection

Greets, Tommes
