Title:
  Xscreensaver locks when it should not

Status in “acpi-support” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have removed gnome-screensaver and replaced it with xscreensaver,
  and am trying to prevent it from locking my screen when my laptop's
  screen turns back on or when it wakes up from being suspended. Even
  though the "Lock Screen After" box in xscreensaver's setting is
  unchecked, the lock will still pop up and demand a password when I
  open my lid. The expected behavior is, of course, to not have that
  occur.

  The system settings have also been set to "Do nothing" when I close it
  (and indeed, gnome-screensaver obeyed these settings just fine when I
  was using it). Often after I restart the computer xscreensaver acts as
  it should for a while, but eventually the problem will crop back up.
  I've noticed no pattern, save that when it does start doing this I
  can't seem to make it stop.

  I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 (though this also occured in 11.10). I'm also
  not alone I think, see: http://askubuntu.com/questions/95295/how-to-
  prevent-screen-locking-when-lid-is-closed

  Thanks!
