| jarnos | If I suspend by the log out dialog or by Action buttons, xflock4 is not called. What code is used, instead? What code xfce4-power-manager uses to lock? | 17:03 |
| brainwash | xflock4 is used if you tell xfce4-settings to do so | 17:08 |
| brainwash | jarnos: settings > session and startup > last tab | 17:10 |
| jarnos | brainwash, I see. However, if gnome-screensaver daemon is running, screen will be locked by it, if you have decided not to lock before sleep in settings. | 17:34 |
| brainwash | so? that's not a Xfce issue | 17:34 |
| brainwash | you need to configure gnome-screensaver | 17:35 |
| jarnos | brainwash, I don't see how you could do it. | 17:37 |
| brainwash | usually via dconf | 17:37 |
| jarnos | brainwash, but if you suspend using xfce4-power-manager, and you have chosen in its preferences not to lock, it won't lock even if gnome-screensaver daemon is running. | 18:00 |
| brainwash | jarnos: so it does not suspend via logind and calls upower directly I would assume | 18:57 |
| brainwash | so what is the actual problem? xubuntu does not ship with gnome-screensaver | 19:00 |
| brainwash | if you encounter the same issue with light-locker (fork of gnome-screensaver), please file a bug report on launchpad | 19:01 |
| jarnos | brainwash, is Xubuntu T going to be using light-locker in xflock4 ? | 19:12 |
| brainwash | jarnos: yes | 19:12 |
| brainwash | patch for xflock4 does already exist, but the branch needs to be merged | 19:13 |
| jarnos | brainwash, is the script going to be changed for xfce, too, or just xubuntu? | 19:14 |
| brainwash | you mean upstream? | 19:14 |
| jarnos | brainwash, yes | 19:14 |
| brainwash | don't know | 19:15 |
| jarnos | brainwash, light-locker depends on lightdm, but I guess xfce can be used with other display managers, as well. | 19:16 |
| jarnos | brainwash, where can I see the patch for xflock4? | 19:17 |
| brainwash | xflock4 simply tries to trigger known screen locker, and light-locker is kinda new | 19:19 |
| brainwash | jarnos: bug 1254366 | 19:20 |
| ubottu | bug 1254366 in xfce4-session (Ubuntu) "Add support for light-locker in xflock4" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1254366 | 19:20 |
| jarnos | brainwash, thanks, I have been working on a patch for xflock4 in upstream, and I could try to take that into account. | 19:24 |
| brainwash | sounds great :) | 19:26 |
| brainwash | gottcode: hey, I've noticed something strange after upgrading to whisker menu 1.3, editing or changing .desktop files somehow crashes the panel plugin | 19:29 |
| brainwash | it happened while I was editing one file via text editor and also while apt-get was applying package updates | 19:30 |
| brainwash | I'll try to get some debugging information later | 19:31 |

| knome | i'm back. | 20:31 |
| knome | had a nasty stomach illness meanwhile, i hope you all were at least a bit better... | 20:31 |
| gottcode | brainwash: I will look into that shortly | 20:37 |
| jarnos_ | I have been trying light-locker in Saucy using this PPA: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/08/lightdm-session-locker-light-locker.html | 20:52 |
| jarnos_ | I wonder, if there is some purpose in the light-locker daemon, which does not run on background btw. "light-locker-command -l" seems to work regardless of the daemon. | 21:03 |
| jarnos_ | Whereas "gnome-screensaver-command --lock" starts its respective daemon, if one is not running. | 21:05 |
| brainwash | jarnos_: the daemon locks the session on suspend | 21:12 |
| brainwash | when suspend is triggered via logind | 21:12 |
| brainwash | and it also allows timed locking (after 10min) | 21:13 |
| brainwash | this feature requires a recent version of light-locker | 21:14 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, Do you mean it will lock screen only if you resume from suspend after e.g. 10 min? | 21:15 |
| brainwash | the daemon locks the screen on suspend OR after 10min of inactivity (according to the screen saver extension of the X server) | 21:17 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, oh, I see. I think xflock4 should then check, if the daemon is running, and use "light-locker-command -l "only then. I am going to address this in the bug report. | 21:22 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, now, there it is: bug 1254366 | 22:49 |
| ubottu | bug 1254366 in xfce4-session (Ubuntu) "Add support for light-locker in xflock4" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1254366 | 22:49 |
| brainwash | jarnos_: ok, I'll test it as soon as I get access to my test system | 23:13 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, good | 23:13 |
| brainwash | currently everything is going slow, so it might take some time until the changes actually land in trusty | 23:14 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, so I have not yet tested light-locker in trusty, but I think it is the same version as in the PPA I have been using. In short tests I have seen at least to issues: | 23:55 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, light-locker cannot fork, i.e. "light-locker" runs just as "light-locker --no-daemon" | 23:56 |
| jarnos_ | brainwash, if I lock by it and change to different tty and back, desktop is shown short time. | 23:56 |
| jarnos_ | Can anyone comfirm these in trusty? | 23:57 |
| jarnos_ | Not much issues reported, yet: https://github.com/the-cavalry/light-locker/issues | 23:59 |
| * jarnos_ goes to sleep. | 23:59 | |
