Lock screen problem

Run Preferences — Screensaver and tick the box "Lock screen when screensaver is active".

I don't think Ctrl-l is a good idea, because it might be needed in a program. Make sure your Windows keys are properly identified as Super (use Preferences — Keyboard, choose the tab Layouts and the Layout options button) and use <Super>l.
