Salut,
The new version still doesn't fix the problem for me :(
When I enter the wrong password, it hangs. I go to the console
and come back in X, it still doesn't redraw. I need to go on
console and kill it to get back my X display.
[my passwd is a bitch to type, hence this bug gets irritating pretty fast ;-)]
Thanks.
Fabrice.

Hello,
I run xlock as:
$ /usr/bin/xlock -mode blank -sound -locksound \
/usr/share/sounds/xlockmore/thank-you.au -infosound \
usr/share/sounds/xlockmore/identify-please.au -validsound \
/usr/share/sounds/xlockmore/complete.au -invalidsound \
/usr/share/sounds/xlockmore/not-programmed.au
(all in one line without the backslashes...)
and when I enter an incorrect passwd, my xlock hang there.
I know when your passwd is incorrect, it will make you
wait some time to discourage you of brute forcing it,
but in this case it's way way too long (it basically hang).
On the other hand, when I enter my password correctly, it does
work fine!
If I go into text console ALT+CTRL+F1, and come back
to X, then xlock doesn't even redraw the display.
a # strace -p PID_OF_XLOCK shows nothing at all,
and a ps indicate that xlock in not in uninterruptible mode..
so I have no cule what's wrong !
I call xlock this way everyday for a few months, and
only the last few days this started to happen :(
I use all the latest cooker packages.
Anybody's got a clue of what's wrong ?
(with xlock or with me ;-) ? )
Have a nice day.
