Package: suckless-tools Version: 38-1 Severity: important Hello,
I have some interesting problem with slock. Well basically slock is executed by xflock4 for locking purpose. On my computer (Thinkpad T43) with 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300] i have problems unlocking screen. Essentially screen keeps blinking, or rather a LCD backlight is blinking (screen is still black). I can enter password by blind and hit enter, and it unlocks, but I do not see anything on screen when I enter a password In fact whole LCD backlight is off. It sometimes blinks for unknown reason (like 1-2 times per second). I can switch to text console (Ctrl-Alt-F1), and everything is perfect, but when switch back to X console, backlight is off. I was trying doing something with xrandr, but nothing helps. I was also trying to use xbacklight utility from console (with setting proper XAUTHORITY and DISPLAY env variables), but it says 'No outputs have backlight property'. On the other hand xrandr --output LVDS --off, and xrandr --output LVDS --auto works, and switches off/on a backlight. Any ideas? This is my Xorg.

Backlight control is in all cases working without problem. I have compositing disabled. Just calling manually 'slock' is enaugh to trigger backlight problem when unlocking.
