<title>The screen locks itself too quickly</title>
21
<p>If you leave for computer for a few minutes, the screen will automatically lock itself so you have to enter your password to start using it again. This is done for security reasons (so no-one can mess with your work if you leave the computer unattended), but it can be annoying if the screen locks itself too quickly.</p>
23
<p>To wait for a longer period before automatically locking the screen:</p>
26
<item><p>Click your name on the top bar and select <gui>System Settings</gui>.</p></item>
27
<item><p>Select <gui>Screen</gui>.</p></item>
28
<item><p>Change the value in the <gui>Lock screen after</gui> drop-down list.</p></item>
32
<p>If you don't ever want the screen to lock itself automatically, switch <gui>Lock</gui> off.</p>
