If closing the lid halts the CPU, you don't need to lock first -- when the lid is re-opened, xscreensaver will notice that the clock has drifted, and lock automatically. If closing the lid leaves the CPU running, but powers off the screen, then xscreensaver will (in a few minutes) notice that the screen is off, and stop running hacks on it (just as it would on a desktop machine when DPMS kicked in.) So I don't think you need to do either of those things. -- Jamie Zawinski [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.jwz.org/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.dnalounge.com/ http://jwz.livejournal.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
