Hello:

This is for the KDE4 folks...

Has anyone encountered issues with getting the KDE Screen Locker to automatically launch from with an X2GO Session?

From within my X2GO / KDE Session, I am able to launch the KDE Screen Lock manually using either of the two commands:

/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kscreenlocker_greet --immediateLock
qbdus org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /ScreenSaver Lock

However, after setting to "Start Automatically", the screen lock doesn't activate. Using "kcmshell4 screensaver", I set the following:

Start Automatically after: 1 minute

Require Password after: 60 seconds

Screen Locker Type: Simple locker

The screen lock will not activate, even after several minutes of inactivity. This appears to only be a problem if I am connected to my server using X2GO. If I connect via a FreeRDP session, the screen lock launches as expected. If I am logged in directly on the console, the screen lock launches as expected. If I replace the KDE Screen Lock system with "XScreenSaver", the screen lock also launches as expected.

I have always been able to use the KDE Screen Lock system and I am still able to do so as long as I am not connected within an X2GO session.

I would prefer to use the KDE Screen Lock system over XScreenSaver and I would prefer to use X2GO over FreeRDP - not being able to automatically launch the KDE Screen Lock is my only stumbling block.

I am curious if other KDE4 users have experienced issues or do you use an alternative Screen Lock system such as "xscreensaver".

My OS is Debian Jessie and my X2GO Server is version 4.0.1.19

Any thoughts or suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks!

Jim
