bug#23201: GNOME lock screen hotkey doesn't work
Hi, I'm using GuixSD v0.10.0 with GNOME. I'd like to be able to lock my screen, but I can't seem to do so. My settings under GNOME settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > System lists the following hotkey: * Lock screen: Super+L However, when I press Super+L, nothing happens. Even when I change the key binding to something else, it still doesn't work. I can't find any logs in /var/log which shed any light on why this doesn't work. How can I lock my screen or investigate further why it's not working? -- Chris signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Just to keep this bug up to date, there is a Gnome Display Manager (GDM) service available, and if you use this, then Super+L does work. However, the GDM service in GuixSD doesn't currently do any authentication for some reason, so the "lock" part of locking the screen is still missing. Anyway, I think this is the path to solve this, get the GDM working including authentication, and then make the GDM the default login manager when using Gnome. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I agree. I’ve been using the lock screen with the hotkey for a while now. Closing. -- Tim
