Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
Feisty with gnome-screensaver 2.17.7-0ubuntu1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable "Lock screen when screensaver active" in Screensaver Preferences.
2. Allow the screensaver to activate.
3. Attempt to deactivate screensaver.
4. Enter password etc.
5. Wait ...
