Disable password request from suspend - 18.04
How can I disable password request after suspend in Ubuntu 18.04? I have already turned off the screen lock but that didn't fix it.
I am new Ubuntu user. There seems to be lots of information on how to fix this in older versions.
Solution 1:
For most Ubuntu distributions and versions try this in the terminal:
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.screensaver ubuntu-lock-on-suspend
true
If the result is true
then set it to false
using:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver ubuntu-lock-on-suspend false
Just remember to reset it before your cleaning person comes over for monthly work.
Solution 2:
Disable screen lock after suspend by installing dconf-editor
sudo apt install dconf-editor
then navigate to
org/gnome/desktop/screensaver
and turn off
ubuntu-lock-on-suspend
.
Solution 3:
You can disable the password from suspend in 18.04 by going into Settings -> Privacy -> Screen Lock -> [Click he Slider from On to Off]
Solution 4:
In Ubuntu 19.04, there is finally a method to configure this without executing commands:
Open the "Settings" program, or start it with
gnome-control-center
.Navigate to "Privacy" and click on "Screen locking".
Disable "Lock the screen in standby".
Internally, it has just the same effect as the command mentioned in another answer here:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver ubuntu-lock-on-suspend false
