  • Cool but Obscure X11 Apps
    Anyone here use https://github.com/google/xsecurelock? I found it while going through reddit.com/r/unixporn and looking at other peoples tiling window manager setups. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
  • Configure xsecurelock with fprintd
    Hey there, I am using xsecurelock (https://github.com/google/xsecurelock, xsecurelock-git from AUR) since a while and I am very happy with it. I would like to go further with fingerprint authentication. I know how PAM works, rode the README but I am afraid to screw it up and get locked out. Source: over 1 year ago
  • System hangs on resumption
    How do I fix this hanging behavior? Would using, say, xsecurelock or slock resolve the issue? Source: over 2 years ago
  • Can you have a video as a background for i3lock?
    I replaced i3lock with this https://github.com/google/xsecurelock. Source: about 3 years ago
