Re: bl-exit

^ Perhaps I worded my response incorrectly.  What I meant was I want to be able to easily use xscreensaver on my system and call bl-lock from bl-exit so that I have to login using xscreensaver.  I used the default technique briefly this week when rebuilding my desktop and I despise the technique; no offense (hopefully) to the developers.

The problem with copying the script to ~/bin is when scripts drastically change, as has happened with the bl-exit, and maybe the bl-lock, script.  That technique was suggested once before to me by johnraff, but I kind of glossed over it and decided to be a glutton for punishment and change the bl-exit and bl-lock scripts every time bl-utilities is updated.  I'll give the copying the scripts to ~/bin since you've brought it up again and see how it goes.

As always, thank you for chiming in.  I frequently learn from you when you chime in.   wink

Whatever you do, please keep the script so that it can be modded by users to lock the system when suspending if desired.  I use xscreensaver and mod bl-exit to call bl-lock when suspending.

May I ask, just for my understanding, is it about locking the screen before suspend? I'm just wondering why to choose this way, hence there is a password requirement after waking up from suspend (at least as far as I can remember).

Re: bl-exit

Hi,

why not use obsession package in bunsenlabs? Here manually run :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnxTht1 … e=youtu.be

or merged in menu.xml :

        <item label="Exit">
            <action name="Execute">
                <command>
                    <!-- bl-exit -->
                    obsession-logout
                </command>
            </action>
        </item>

First of all: what a lovely package, thanks for the heads-up, I am now using that in my live image smile

However, /usr/bin/obsession-logout is a binary executable whereas bl-exit is a (python) script and I personally think that the latter is better suited to BunsenLabs because it is easier for users to hack around and change.

Re: bl-exit

I see your point. But it can be an easy workaround for non systemd users like me !

The bl-exit script was designed to work with other init systems  hmm

I have found it to work with SysVinit (but not openrc-init).

How did you switch away from systemd and what are you using in it's place?

This is a perfect opportunity to post a tutorial...

We encourage this kind of input in all aspects of our community-driven Debian derivative. For me, customization is the second best thing about Linux (first is Debian's stability, security, that's a good one, a non-insane update/upgrade path and that whole non-profit/open source/free software foundation thing).

No, he can't sleep on the floor. What do you think I'm yelling for?!!!

Well just installed minimal Devuan (without X), added bunsenlabs repositories, then bunsen-meta-all.

Ah, I see, it's a shame bl-exit doesn't work on a Devuan base but I can't say I'm surprised.

Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Not speaking about bl-exit, so far all what I need is working fine excepting network-manager, but I don't care, I have no laptop, just a wired desktop. But there are surely plenty of different cases. If you think about something special I can test ...

But as Devuan is no just Debian without systemd, they removed some systemd dependencies from some core packages, it is much easier to just use Debian without systemd. Check these three packages dependencies :

devuan@devuan:~$ apt-cache depends policykit-1
policykit-1
  Dépend: libc6
  Dépend: libglib2.0-0
  Dépend: libpam0g

  Dépend: libc6

dbus
  Dépend: libaudit1
  Dépend: libc6
  Dépend: libcap-ng0
  Dépend: libdbus-1-3
  Dépend: libexpat1
  Dépend: libselinux1
  Dépend: adduser
  Dépend: lsb-base
  Suggère: dbus-x11

debian@debian:~$ apt-cache depends dbus
dbus
  Dépend: libaudit1
  Dépend: libc6
  Dépend: libcap-ng0
  Dépend: libdbus-1-3
  Dépend: libexpat1
  Dépend: libselinux1
  Dépend: libsystemd0
  Dépend: adduser
  Dépend: lsb-base
  Suggère: dbus-x11

Also  my setup is all about APT::Install-Recommends "false";, so I have not exactly the same standard Bunsenlabs setup (I dit not installed bunsen-meta-all package but all recommends individually)
