🔒 i3lock & betterlockscreen support

Open FelipeFTN opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I'm basically reopening this issue here #21 since I'm having the exact same problem. Can you please help me to solve it?

After applying those changes to the script, I get a error from i3lock, warning that locking wasn't possible, then it stops the screen locking. So strange behavior, isn't it? Anyone can help me? I'm using i3lock-color because I want to blur my desktop during my screenlock. Executing the same command on the terminal, works just fine!

   $ i3lock --nofork --color=00000000

The problem is that rofi holds a lock on the keyboard and i3lock is therefore unable to have access to the keyboard and instead quits (probably so that you don't get stuck on the lockscreen without a functioning keyboard)

A solution is to kill rofi before executing the chosen action. This can be done by adding the the following line to line 266 of the script ... # kill rofi (this line needs to be added) killall rofi # Perform the action (this was already in the script) ${actions[$entry]} ...
