Hi! It's a stupid question, i think, but: are there any developments for a lock screen for Arch, in differents DE? i used to use before Gnome, on Ubuntu and had it. Also KDE had it. Now use xfce and missing it. Is there any news or how long will we have to wait? Marco
Hi Marco, you have to install a screen locker for xflock4 to work, see the section on the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/xfce#Lock_the_screen I'm now on KDE which has one built in, but I remember using slock in xfce, it worked fine On Wed, Nov 16, 2022, at 12:10, ilpiko2 wrote:

Did you install xfce4-screensaver? See also <https://docs.xfce.org/apps/screensaver/start>.
I'll try tomorrow. Ty all, in the meantime. I'll let you know. Marco Il giorno mer 16 nov 2022 alle ore 12:20 <2QdxY4RzWzUUiLuE@potatochowder.com> ha scritto:

I can also confirm that xscreensaver works fine with xfce/xflock4 as well. DR
