Re: xautolock does nothing...
Tony Baldwin photodha...@gmail.com: I have xautolock and slock installed, and have tried to use this: xautolock -time 5 -locker slock for those times I walk away and forget to engage slock. But it doesn't work. Any idea why? No, but I can offer a solution. Try xscreensaver (and related). If you run Gkrellm, you can use Gkrellshoot to lock it at the click of a button, or it can be set up to autolock after inactivity. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

But it doesn't work. Any idea why? Stupid question but are you sure slock is installed on your system ? I tried apt-get install slock and it returned an error (unknown package). I am testing it with xtrlock (recommended by xautolock) and it works perfectly well here. Xavier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
