It's usually a good idea to put people on CC: when replying to bug, since the BTS doesn't automatically subscribe people when reporting. No, I don't think your solution would really fit. Sure it's convenient to be able to run some command, but in that case, it's just quite easy and sensible to just force the dpms off, and the patch is quite tiny. Mike, are you still interested in maintaining xlockmore? There are quite some bugs and new upstream versions (which might or might not fix those bugs), if you're not interested anymore it might make sense to just orphan it. Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis
