How to disable screensaver lock?












2















I want that my monitor turns off when I am inactive for a while, but I do not want that I am prompted for a password when I revoke my pc. In Ubuntu 16.04 it was possible to disable the lock but still enable the screensaver as explained here.



In Ubuntu 18.04 I entered the following in terminal:



dconf-editor


and disabled ubuntu-lock-on-suspend:



enter image description here



However, since I made this change, my monitor never suspends anymore. I tried restart but it didn't help.



Any ideas how I can disable lock but still enable suspend mode?

          I just realized lock and suspend are two different things in Ubuntu 18.04.



          One may disable the lock here:

          But still enable suspend here:
