1 I think it can only be started from a VT. But what's the problem? I have an
2 xsession going, plus tmux, plus perhaps something else going in one or more
3 VT
4 All I have to do is call vlock -a from a virtual terminal.
5 Now to access any terminal VT or xsession - you have to unlock this VT
6 first.
7 But I can still access my box remotely through SSH
