Description of problem:
When I try to lock the screen, nothing happens.
XScreenSaver says, that there the deamon is not running because of root 
rights. I should execute a 
xhost +localhost
After doing so, the screensaver is running (but after a reboot the 
screensaver won't work again), but I still cannot lock the screen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Didn't try

When the deamon is running an I try to lock the screen over File --> Lock 
Screen menu,
a popup tells me, that "locking is no enabled".
