Issues with screensaver turning on after wake up

Post by isso »

When I wake up and unlock my computer, the screensaver activates after a few seconds. I can use my computer normally before the screensaver turns on.

Any idea what's the problem?

I'm using Linux Mint 17.3 x64 Cinnamon. I have a dual monitor setup using a laptop connected to an external monitor

try these :
1. Let your computer go to sleep automatically due to inactivity, or manually put it to sleep.
2. do ^that in dual monitor, or single monitor setup (remove external display)
In total that's 4 possible combinations. Tell us if the above cases affect the lock behaviour you mention or remains same throughout?
Windows assumes I'm stupid but Linux proves it.
