For what it's worth I just discovered that xscreensaver now has xscreensaver-systemd, and is running on my Chimaera desktop. "The xscreensaver-systemd program is a helper program to integrate xscreensaver with systemd(1)."
I've been having problems with screen blanking / monitor power off recently. Can we blame systemd now? Soooo, I just want to be able to lock the screen manually, or have it lock after a configurable time out. Once locked, the monitors should be powered down after a short time out. No fancy OpenGL screen savers, just blanking, locking, and monitor power off. So waving my mouse around or hitting some random key should then bring up a password prompt so I can unlock it. Is there something that can do that which hasn't been infected with systemd? I can probbably accept movie viewers being able to disable the blanking / locking after a lengthy inactivity. But right now if I have run certain games, I get crap like the monitor keeps powering on and off every few minutes. The cancer, it spreads! -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
