However, in the past they often +had security issues regarding authentication bypass (a crashing screen +locker would unlock the screen), information disclosure (notifications +may appear on top of the screen saver), or sometimes even worse. + +In XSecureLock, security is achieved using a modular design to avoid the +usual pitfalls of screen locking utility design on X11. + +If pandoc (or pandoc-bin) is installed, then the SlackBuild will build +man pages as well. + +In addition, mpv provides support for the saver_mpv module (which plays +video clips in $HOME/Videos). |
