If there was a backtrace I might try to fix it, it could even be a problem in svgalib itself, but that might also depend on the driver being used. > > I'm setting it to serious since the console is unlocked at that point, > > and so I consider it to be not useful at all. > > Given that we have vlock as a proper and proven replacement (and which > is also portable and not depending on svgalib) we should just remove > lockvc. CCing Guillem, the former maintainer for his opinion. It also runs as suid root, and busy loops while "screen saving", so if Kurt cannot provide a backtrace then I guess removing makes sense. Still I'd be interested to know if this is really lockvc's fault or svgalib's, as the latter might affect other programs. regards, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
