Title:
  sceenblank ignores $SCREEN_LOCK in /etc/default/acpi-support

Status in acpi-support package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The screenblank script in /usr/share/acpi-support/ doesn't check the
  value of the $LOCK_SCREEN variable as set in /usr/default/acpi-
  support.  Even if LOCK_SCREEN is false or not set, the screen gets
  locked anyway.

  Here is a patch to screeblank that checks the value of the
  $LOCK_SCREEn variable, and if 'true' then uses the -lock option to
  xscreensaver-command.
