That's correct, you either need a working logind session (which your
"Error getting session" suggests you either don't or you are launching
xss-lock in a way which doesn't find it properly) or you must use this
option to tell xss-lock the session.
I don't know enough about gnome-flashback to know if it is supposed to
have a working logind or not or how one should launch xss-lock to
properly use it if it does.
