Can you please give some useful information such as the i3lock version etc.?
i3lock: version 2.7-100-gb07ec97 (2017-02-17) on Archlinux, problem appeared last week on my 2 laptops
Are you using a compositor?
I do : compton git-v0.1_beta2-86-gb7f43ee-2016-09-07
Does the bug appear when you disable compton? If so, can you build i3lock from git and see if it is fixed there already by the latest commit?
Also that compton version is pretty old (because compton hasn't released in forever). Building it from source is something I'd generally recommend.
Killing compton seems solve the bug.
I use the latest git version of compton Latest commit b7f43ee on 7 Sep 2016
... Bug seems not present anymore, without doing nothing... hm will try on my work laptop tomorrow, thx for your help and sorry for that poor bug report ;) I keep it open to let you know what solved the bug.
I'm actually going to close it because the issue has disappeared and we don't support compositing with i3lock anyway. But if you do find anything out please do let us know. If it comes back, let's talk about it some more :-)
At work
I'm using modesetting driver
No problem with : https://github.com/Lixxia/i3lock
If it works with that, you could try a git bisect on the main i3lock repository. But like I said, compositing is not supported in i3lock, so if disabling compton makes the issue disappear we do not consider it a bug (you could wrap killall compton; i3lock; compton -b
).
If we do find the issue and it's an easy fix we will of course consider it.
I understand it :) no problem
This is
i3lock
without any argument. When i start i3lock, some areas overrides the default white screen while screen is still locked. Same with i3lock-fancy-multimonitor and blur effect from imagemagick
