I too have the same problem on my Toshiba M500 running 9.10 with the latest updates ... but in reverse .... I am trying to make the system prompt for a password upon resume. i have tried the gconf-editor method to no avail. Both in sudo and without it makes absolutely what is checked in the editor ... the system still does NOT prompt upon resume. It used to to so, but since the latest updates it no longer does. Also another weird thing is that the suspend button combo (func+F3) does still suspend the machine BUT when I press the power button to resume (like it used to work) the computer resumes with a frozen cursor, and promptly goes back to sleep .... only a complete power down with the battery out solves this cycle. I am an ubuntu n00b so it is quite difficult for me to diagnose all this, but I have tried all suggested methods and so far have had no luck.
