You can always check the display settings on your System Settings
tool.<br>
<br>
I use KDE. For a long time KDE blanked out the screen, and all I had
to do was move the mouse to un-blank it. Then came the locking
option.<br>
<br>
But then I installed the kde-screensaver package. (There's one for
gnome, too; I don't know about XFCE or other desktops.) Then at last
I could use the plethora of options I once had under xscreensaver.
Only now they're built-in to System Settings and do not try to load
as a separate terminate/stay-resident routine. I set my screensaver
to display a slideshow, based on the same options I use to show a
"slideshow wallpaper."<br>
<br>
I also made sure to set screensaver on, and turn the lock off. (My
computer is in a room that only I ever visit.)<br>
