Re: [E-devel] desklock softlock feature
Hi again,
attached a new version of the softlock patch which applies against
current cvs.
Maybe somebody find it useful too.
Bye,
Thomas

Hi,
attached a little patch which delays the password input after the
screensaver timeout locks your screen. I found it helpful when I didn't
create any input event awhile and the timed out screensaver force me to
enter my password while sitting in front of the computer.
The patch only applies correctly after applying the desklock config
dialog fix I send before.
Bye,
Thomas

Re: [E-devel] desklock and triple head issues
On Fri, 24 Feb 2006 19:31:31 +0100 (CET) Alexander Griesser [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled: Hi all! I love the new desklock functionality but it has one small limitation for me: It's only displayed on the first of my three displays. A few days ago I fixed this issue in the CVS version by adding a '*3' to the width calculation of the desklock window in e_desklock.c, but in todays CVS snapshot the calculation gets done in some other manner and so I changed all occurences of zone-w to zone-w * 3. But that is not a real solution. Is there a way to get the number of xinerama heads that also works for fake-xinerama? Or is there a function to make the desklock window fit to fullscreen? I looked at the entrance source and found out, that there is a function called ecore_evas_fullscreen_set to set the fullscreen flag for this application, but using that function does (of course) not work for desklock. And another strange thing occured. When the mouse pointer is on the first display while hitting CTRL-ALT-l, everything works fine. When it is on the second display, only the third display gets the desklock background, display 1 and 2 don't change. And so on. it should all be working now ? right? best regards and many thanks for your great work, -- | .-. |Alexander Griesser -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | .''`. | | /v\ \ http://www.tuxx-home.at/ / : :' : | | /( )\ | GPG-KeyID: 0xA2949B5A | `. `' | | ^^ ^^ `-'`- | --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

Re: [E-devel] DeskLock and VMWare, VMWare keeps keyboard input
On Fri, 3 Mar 2006 16:58:01 -0600 Marc McGarry [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled: I'm having an issue with desklock and VMWare. I have VMWare setup to grab keyboard and mouse focus using VMWare Tools. Basically, when I move the mouse into the VMWare window, it gets key+mouse control and when I mouse out of it, it loses the focus and E17 then gets key+mouse control. Now, when the DeskLock screensaver kicks in and locks the screen, it isn't getting the keyboard access if my mouse was last in VMWare. mmm - good point. I don't know if this can be worked around using DeskLock or if it's just something I'm going to have to live with when using VMWare. Would it be possible to add a setting to force mouse and key focus to a specific window or desk area? Or move the mouse to 0,0 of the current window before locking? well we cant BREAK the existing grab (vmware literally grabs the mouse and keyboard - it doesn't just allow normal focus and mouse events to work in this situation) without: 1. unmapping (hiding) the window that has the grab OR 2. literally killing the x client (or destroying the window) that has the grab. problem is... x doesn't provide a way to find out what window has the keyboard or mouse grab. desklock needs to try do this: 1. actually try hide all windows (unmap them) which will (hopefully) break any existing keyboard and mouse grabs 2. actually check if the keyboard and mouse grabs fail or succeed - if they fail try a few times in a row (with small pauses) to get them - if this fails display an error dialog and don't lock. this should mean your desktop doesn't become locked up at any rate. I believe the problem is that the lock is occurring and cannot get keyboard control because VMWare has it, but it DOES get mouse control, resulting in a disconnect preventing VMWare from giving up keyboard control.

Re: [E-devel] desklock and triple head issues
Basically, I do not understand what you want to say by your example. In my opinion, you want to have a login box exactly on that screen which is active in the moment? right ? Then if you change your active screen, the login box shoul go to that screen ? Actually, the talk was about look and feel - on which screen to place login box to have a nice view. Now it does not matter on wich screen you are. In any case you will be able to unlock. // Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but shouldn't the login box show up on // whichever screen is 'active' not not an arbitrary screen (e.g. I lock // the display on screen #6, then press a key to let it know I'd like to // use it again, if the login box is set for screen #1 I'd have to know // that and change to that screen). // // Feel free to correct me if I missed the boat. :) // // - -sandalle // // - -- // Eric Sandall | Source Mage GNU/Linux Developer // [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.sourcemage.org/ // http://eric.sandall.us/ | SysAdmin @ Inst.

Re: [E-devel] desklock and triple head issues
Hi, Actually, this is still under developing. However, it was my idea to have login boxes on each screen. Maybe it is not a very good idea. Anyway, I'm going to update a config dialog, where it will be possible to set up the following: a) on which screen(s) to have a login box. b) or to place it automatically in the middle screen. c) maybe something else. However, I do not know why, yet, the mouse pointer is tripled in your case. During my tests with faked xinerama screens I did not have such problems. Anyway, now I'm just working on theming options for desklock. After I finish this, I will check what can be done with login box. ciao. sn On 2/27/06, Alexander Griesser [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Aleksej Strukwrote: already done, and in cvs ;) Thanks for the quick update, but it doesn't work as expected...

The problems you listed are really known forme, since I'm actually writing this code.However, I only have a single monitor machine. So, I was not able totest it with xinerama yet. Now, I'm looking for this. Since the main code is written, and only thing I have to do is to place a desklock windowon all the monitors.Please be patient. However, if you can suggest to me how can I visuallyhave e+xinerama on a single monitor machine, you'll really help. ;) Is this suitable? $ enlightenment -fake-xinerama-screen WxH+X+Y Add a FAKE xinerama screen (instead of the real ones) given the geometry. Add as many as you like. They all replace the real xinerama screens, if any. This can be used to simulate xinerama. Regards! David
