Problems locking desktop


I am running version 9.1 and have a problem locking the deskotp, when I go to lock the desktop, my screen saver tries to lock, it says "Will not lock desktop as unlocking deskop would be impossible. No greator plugin configured."

Pardon the ignorance but can I get some help on this?

Just a shot in the dark, but do you have a password configured for the screen saver?

Why wouldn't it take my usernames password? Also there is not a spot to setup a password for the screen saver.

There should be a checkbox for enabling screensaver password.

Right click on the desktop, select configure desktop > Screen Saver

The checkbox should be in the right hand pane.
