thanks for the reply i have removed my resume file and created a suspend file and linked hibernate to it with the following in suspend: #!/bin/sh pkill -USR1 -x xidle i also removed the xautolock and i3lock line in .i3/config and added the following to .xinitrc: xscreensaver-no-splash & xidle -program '/usr/X11R6/bin/xlock -mode random' -timeout 300 & the screen lock now works as expected when resuming the laptop. thanks shadrock
