Change the lock screen program
Configure Regolith to use a lock screen other than
gnome-flashback
1. Configure gnome-flashback
to Disable Built-in Lockscreen
By default gnome-flashback
handles the lock screen for Regolith. This can be adjusted by modifying it’s configuration via the gsettings
command line program:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.gnome-flashback screensaver false
2. Cause Your Lock screen program to Run from i3 Keybinding
Specify the following override line in your ~/.config/regolith/Xresources
file (substituting your-script.sh
with the command you wish to use for the locking your screen):
i3-wm.program.lock: your-script.sh
For example, assuming you have i3lock
installed:
$ echo "i3-wm.program.lock: /usr/bin/i3lock" >> ~/.config/regolith/Xresources
