I managed to lock the PC (with Xscreensaver.dsl) and added in .xinitrc the line: xscreensaver -nosplash & (just before the fluxbox-entry)
When the screensaver starts the PC is locked. (user = dsl, which is default, i changed the password of dsl with the command: passwd (sudo su in a term) and saved the changes in filetool.lst.
added these lines to filetool.lst:
/home/dsl/.xscreensaver /etc/group /etc/group~ /etc/group.org /etc/passwd /etc/passwd~ /etc/passwd.org /etc/shadow /etc/shadow~ /etc/shadow.org
I could of course put the: xscreensaver -nosplash line in a script and run it with a hotkey/keybinding in fluxbox. All i would have to do is to killall -9 xscreensaver at the end of the script. (so xscreensaver doesn't bother me any more when i have entered a password to unlock the PC)
Right now the screensaver (and lock) are activated after 5 minutes of inactivity. I like the xmatrix-screensaver :-)
Now all i want is a loginscreen at boottime....
