Disable Login Prompt after Screensaver

Question

I want the screensaver on, but when I move the mouse over the screen, I don't want to be prompted for the password.

Is there any way of doing this?

I see that the screensaver setting has been removed since version 11, and been replaced with GNOME Screensaver.

Solution

Yes go into screen saver lock settings under system settings and disable prompt for password on resume and or screensaver...

I don't see that on 14.04 - unless it is hidden?

I found in Brightness & Lock > Require my password when waking from suspend. I unticked that, but not sure if that was correct?

By the way, I found the setting in the privacy section, on Ubuntu 16.04 (for anyone using that version).
