Cinnamon: Disable password prompt after resume from suspend

Created on 11 Nov 2013  ยท  5Comments  ยท  Source: linuxmint/cinnamon

Since the last Cinnamon update or the previous one (2.0.10 or 2.0.11), the password prompt is displayed after I resume from suspend.
I had previously disable this feature (probably in the settings), but I don't manage to disable it again.
I disabled the screen lock in the cinnamon settings without effects.
I tried with dconf: org โ†’ gnome โ†’ desktop โ†’ lockdown โ†’ disable-lock-screen โ†’ true
And with gconf: gconf: / โ†’ desktop โ†’ gnome โ†’ lockdown โ†’ disable_lock_screen โ†’ true
Again without effects.
So do I miss something or is there a problem ?

Is Settings => Screensaver and Lock => "Require my password when waking from suspend" ticked?

Try

gsettings set org.cinnamon.settings-daemon.plugins.power lock-on-suspend false

Unfortunately, the lock-on-suspend parameter was already set to false

Is Settings => Screensaver and Lock => "Require my password when waking from suspend" ticked?

Thanks for your tip @clfarron4, but the parameter Require my password when waking from suspend was already unticked in my Cinnamon settings.

I finally found the solution.
I had it since the beginning: it's the dconf: org โ†’ gnome โ†’ desktop โ†’ lockdown โ†’ disable-lock-screen parameter which controls if the password prompt is displayed after resume from suspend.
When I did my test with this parameter the first time: I ticked it but it hasn't been saved.
I had the same problem again: I ticked a parameter in dconf but it is not saved.
Anyway, this problem is solved!
@leigh123linux , @clfarron4 thanks for your help.
