When screen locks my computer goes to sleep and I lose lan connection

tknomanzr, can you tell me the version number for xfce4-power-manager that you are running?

If you want to find package version for eg stretch, then you can do a Package search: "Menu -> Help -> Debian -> Package Search"

The stretch/sid version is `1.4.4-4`

Okay, that is what I thought. I did install from stretch a bit ago and got 1.4.4.4 but that didn't help with my issue. As for tknomanzr's screenshot I believe since he has light locker instead of using lightdm's greeter he is seeing that extra light locker security tab.

I still have an issue with any version putting my computer to sleep whenever lock screen occurs.

Light-locker is simply a small screen locking utility that takes you back to the greeter for login when you come out of screen lock. It is the default locking utility for BL, so you should have it unless you removed it.

Ah, I didn't quite understand that I guess. Odd, I do have it, but I don't have the Security tab no matter the version of xfce4-power-manager I have installed

$ apt-cache policy light-locker 
light-locker:
  Installed: 1.4.0-2+b1
  Candidate: 1.4.0-2+b1
  Version table:
 *** 1.4.0-2+b1 0
        500 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I could attempt install xfce4-power-manager 1.4.4.4 again and doing a restart to see if it makes any difference. I did run an xfce4-power-manager --restart after installation but still didn't get that tab.

Please let the screen lock then wake the system and open a terminal and post the output of this command:

dmesg|tail -n30

Would performing a

sudo journalctl -u system.slice | tail -n 30

after wake up, reveal anything of note ?

It would reveal all journal entries for the system.slice unit.

I think any useful information will be recorded in the kernel ring buffer.
