Hmm, maybe my 64bit system again? I tried several things to get this working. First, on my system slock would not see any event besides KeyPress/KeyRelease (and mybe mouse movement - didn't test), then after explicitly requesting a VisibilityChangeMask, slock worked until I restarted xcompmgr again (stopped it for testing purposes). Now I added a call to XSelectInput(dpy, lock->root, SubstructureNotifyMask); That did work for me every time (with and without xcompmgr, no further changes to slock.c required). -- Eckehard Berns
