Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

Hi all,

please verify this:

When using the gconf-editor as admin/root to set

/apps/gnome-screensaver/lock_enabled true

as mandatory setting, then in the screensaver-dialog the wrong option is disabled.
The "activate screensaver when computer is idle" is grayed out and the user can't change it in the dialog. When using a normal/non-admin gconf-editor session, the user can change the "/apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled" option.

The "Lock screen when screensaver is active" is never grayed out. When a user uncheck it it seems that it doesn't change the behavior (lock screen) and when the dialog is reopened the box is marked (true) again.

So looks like only the wrong option is grayed out.
Importance: low

Tested on Ubuntu 8.10 i386 - all updates installed (18. Jan. '09)
gnome-screensaver 2.24.0-0ubuntu2
