This fails for me (reported in comments #5, #13, #14 of bug 1989163):
Selecting 'Lock Screen' works in my Dell Precision M4800, when running
Lubuntu Kinetic Live. The screensaver starts and runs (a bit
stuttering, different from earlier). The problem is to get rid of it.
I get a pop-up window 'XscreenSaver 2021, v6.02' and it should be
happy when pressing Enter or OK (with a blank password) but nothing
happens and I have to stop the graphical desktop environment via
ctrl+alt+F2.
This seems to be different from your descriptions, but I guess it is
related.
Edit: I created a second user (in the live system at the virtual text
screen tty2) and logged into it. Then tried 'Lock Screen' and then it
worked to get back into the desktop environment. So in my case it
seems that the pop-up window 'XscreenSaver 2021, v6.02' wants a non-
blank password :-/
It fails not only in a Dell with nvidia but also in a Toshiba with
Intel graphics. I think you can reproduce the bug in most live Lubuntu
Lunar systems.
I don't know the name of the package containing the 'Lock Screen' tool
called by the menu, so please modify the target package to the correct
one.
