Re: screen lock

Just disable screen locking (a lock that needs no password to unlock is not a lock).
Maybe a screensaver (without password) is all you needs.

Re: screen lock

Right-mouse click on the PowerSave icon on the toolbar (looks like a battery), then click on the Configure TDEPowersaver option from the menu.

Go to the General Settings tab and uncheck the Lock screen before suspend option.  This should prevent the screen from being locked out when the PC goes into supsend or sleep mode.

This is, of course, if you're using TDE as your desktop environment.
