Description Josselin Mouette 2009-02-02 16:22:55 UTC

[ Original report by Matt Kraai: http://bugs.debian.org/513317 ]

When GNOME Typing Monitor locks the screen to enforce a typing break,
it blocks the Lock screen keyboard shortcut.  I'd sometimes like to
use the Lock screen keyboard shortcut after GNOME Typing Monitor has
locked the screen so that I can leave my computer unattended without
it being unlocked once the typing break finishes.

Mass move to DrWright module. The code has been removed from the control-center, and put back in the drwright module as its interaction with the GNOME 3.x experience was not defined.

See http://git.gnome.org/browse/drwright

DrWright is not under active development anymore, has not seen code changes for about five years, and saw its last tarball release in the year 2012.
Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/drwright/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
