# i3lock-blank-screen

# About i3lock-blank-screen
* Only the blank screen appears. If you press your password correctly and press enter, the lock will be unlocked.

- i3lock forks, so you can combine it with an alias to suspend to RAM
(run "i3lock && echo mem > /sys/power/state" to get a locked screen
after waking up your computer from suspend to RAM)

- i3lock uses PAM and therefore is compatible with LDAP etc.
On OpenBSD i3lock uses the bsd_auth(3) framework.

Running i3lock
-------------
Simply invoke the 'i3lock' command. To get out of it, enter your password and
press enter.

On OpenBSD the `i3lock` binary needs to be setgid `auth` to call the
authentication helpers, e.g. `/usr/libexec/auth/login_passwd`.
