Hello everyone, I want to use xtrlock to lock my desktop, and to be able to launch it by pressing a key binding. I managed to get it working some time ago, but since some modifications in my rc.lua config file it won't work anymore.
I added this to the globalkeys variable : awful.key({ modkey, }, "z", function () awful.util.spawn("xtrlock") end) but when I press Super-Z my cursor turns into a watch for a while and then get back to normal... However, if I run xtrlock via Super-R, everything is fine as the sweet padlock replaces my mouse cursor. I also tried to replace spawn with spawn_with_shell, and then the key press don't seem to do anything... Does anyone have any hints for me ? Why would not awful.util.spawn("xtrlock") yield the same result as typing xtrlock in the Run: prompt ? Hoping for your helpful responses, Louis
