I 2nd that motion in all ways. I think it's more like 5 or 10 minutes, 
but it still is a PITA. I am using XFCE, & I searched high & low & can 
find *NOWHERE* to adjust the delay. I also observe that the locker is a 
gnome app of some sort, which might explain why I can't adjust it under 
XFCE, but I figure there should be some little file somewhere with 
defaults that could be tweaked .... *ANY* clues appreciated ....
