Hi,

I was trying to use sflock, because I am now using awesome wm on my Ubuntu 12.04 at work and I wanted something secure but simple at the same time.

When I run it, it locked my screen all right, with a coloured background, along with an horizontal line. I guess your program is supposed to show something else. Moreover I could not get it to unlock, so I had to reboot.

If it may be of use to you I put below the versions of some potentially useful packages: x11-utils 7.6+4ubuntu0.2 libx11-6 2:1.4.99.1-0ubuntu2.3

Thanks for your help

My bad... wrong password!

I guess I was put off by the lack of information on the screen, knowing that it does not show my username nor show anything on input.

Also the -b and -c option do not appear to have any effet.
