System name:		w20-575-37
Type and version:	SPARC/4 8.0I
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	use the program passively ie; have it activate in locked/password mode
 after a preset amount of time
...

	I left and forgot to logout , returning 2 hours later, the screen was
 blank, but it only took a single keystroke to enter. It did not prompt me
 for my password.

What's wrong:
	it won't do part a.

What should have happened:
	part a.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	 xscreensaver -L -b ~/.JP.bmp -geometry -195-0 -l &
is the line I use.
It doesn't work w/ or w/o the -L, it only makes the program go locked when it
 FIRST loads.
