Lock button doesn't work with xscreensaver

[rent0n]

Hi there,
I'm using OBLogout on my ubuntu jaunty 9.04 openbox setup.
Here i use xscreensaver (and not gnome-screensaver that is the default in !#).

I noticed that every buttons works great with the exception of the lock button.
So i modified the /etc/oblogout.conf file and i switched from:
gnome-screensaver-command -l
to:
xscreensaver-command -lock
that of course has the same function and works great from the terminal or from openbox menu.

The lock button still doesn't work and running oblogout from the terminal, after pressing the lock button, shows:
gnome-screensaver-command: command not found
Because of course gnome-screensaver is not installed on that system.

It seems oblogout can't read from the configuration file and uses some other kind of configuration, maybe built-in inside the program itself.
Other changes made on the configuration file works perfectly.

I hope the bug can be fixed easily because i love oblogout but i don't want to switch to gnome-screensaver for it!

Thank you.

What version is this on? If 0.2 try using 0.3.

If you are still having issues, run oblogout -v and provide the output here.

As you said, reasonable defaults are provided within OBLogout and if the config file can't be found then this will be the cause.

I had a similar problem with the gnome "Lock Screen" applet. Both xscreensaver-command and gnome-screensaver-command use the "-lock" parameter. I created a symbolic link xscreensaver-command to gnome-screensaver-command to fix this:

" sudo ln -sf /usr/local/bin/xscreensaver-command /usr/bin/gnome-screensaver-command "
