Dear Maintainer,

   If the computer is suspended and Cinnamon Screensaver does not
   started, when the computer is resumed then the screensaver (lock)
   does not immediately start on resume until a network connection
   has been established. If the connection does not start the
   screensaver will eventually start after about 1-5 minutes or so.

   I should also note that I am running as an LDAP client.

   This can be a security vunerablity as the desktop either visible and
   read only, or visible and interactive. Regardless information is
   leaked.

   Screensaver (lockscreen) should appear as soon as the computer is
   resumed. As a work around, locking the screen prior to suspend the
   screen will be locked on resume.

Thanks for the report. For future reference, the correct package for
this issue is cinnamon-screensaver, which I've reassigned it to.

I'm unable to reproduce it in sid with cinnamon-screensaver 3.4.2-1, I
suspended with connection enable, after I removed network cable and
resumed, cinnamon-screensaver showing and unclock is working (after
insert password).

Is there someone there still have this issue?
