In Ubuntu 13 locking the screen would make the screen black. Is is possible to get this behavior in Ubuntu 14?
I liked the old behavior, because I could use it, when I did not want to be distracted.
If the screen remaining on is the issue, you could just turn off the screen. To turn off the scree, you could issue:
xset dpms force off
on a terminal.
If you want a shortcut for this command, go to System settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Custom shortcuts and then give a name of your choice and the command as
xset dpms force off
and give a unique shortcut key combination, for eg. Ctrl+Alt+o similar to Ctrl+Alt+l for locking the screen.
