Uhr +0000:
I guess the exit value of your `xautolock -locknow` execution is
not zero. At it's defined as EXIT_FAILURE (EXIT_FAILURE=1 in
stdlib.c).
Yes, it's 1:
lotus:~% xautolock -locknow || echo $?
Could not locate a running xautolock.
1
The message "Could not locate a running xautolock." (src/message.c:286) only
show up when `type` is not `XA_INTEGER` (19. Defined in
/usr/include/X11/Xatom.h from x11proto-dev).
I don't know anything about x11proto, so I am not sure what the
above means.
I've recompiled xautolock and if this happens again, I'll be able to
provide an strace and the debug output.
Until then: thanks for your quick response!
