    Hi,

    It’s great that this feature has been added, however there is another bug with it on Linux which is a bit of a security issue. When the screen is blanked someone can go up to the physical machine and hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 (or any of the F2-F6 keys) to switch tty and the F7 to go back to the X display to un-blank the screen without the remote user being aware. From then on the local user can take control.

    I’m assuming I haven’t missed some config here? Hopefully this can be fixed in the next release?

    Thanks
