I tested tdepowersave before applying the patch. In tdepowersave I 
set the screensaver to 1 minute and autosuspend to 2 minutes. 
Without the patch the following happens:

* After 1 minute the screensaver starts.
* After 2 minutes the suspend-to-ram 30 second timeout dialog does 
not appear.
* Thereafter the laptop never automatically goes into suspend-to-
ram mode by itself.
* Any user action interrupts the screensaver.
* The laptop then goes into suspend-to-ram mode and the suspend-to-
ram 30 second timeout dialog never appears.

With the patch:

* After 1 minute the screensaver starts.
* After 2 minutes the suspend-to-ram 30 second timeout dialog 
appears.
* After 30 seconds the laptop automatically goes into suspend-to-
ram mode by itself.
* Upon restoring from suspend-to-ram, the screensaver lock dialog 
appears.

Well done!
