If its the screensaver locking you out after a while of inactivity,
System->Preferences->Screensave->Lock screen when screensaver is avtive
I am having a problem with this. In System/Preferences/Screensaver the "lock screen" is indeed UNchecked, but I am getting the login screen after about 5 minutes of idle.
It had been behaving properly before, but I had had to uninstall nvidia drivers which led down a path where I uninstalled and reinstalled xserver-xorg. Now X is working but I can't get rid of the password prompt. ?
I also did this:
ALT+F2
Open gconf-editor.
Go to /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/
Uncheck "Suspend"
And after 5 minutes it still went back to the login screen.
This is in 10.10
Thank you,
John
