lock hint not provided after suspending #160

Open JezerM opened 3 years ago

LightDM offers the get_lock_hint method, to know whether lightdm is executed as a lockscreen or not.

When running the command light-locker-command -l, it works fine; the lock hint is provided, being set to "true". But after the system is suspended, lock hint is not provided, and so it is "false". I think this souldn't be this way, as it is still acting as a lock screen.

But is system locked after resuming from suspend? Is the locking command run beforehand?

Yes, locking works perfectly after resuming from suspend. The only problem is that lock hint is not provided.

I guess the locking command runs when suspend starts. When it resumes, LightDM resumes too (or starts).
