You can use the xscreensaver extension in MyDSL and configure it to do that. Unfortunately, it has one serious flaw: ctrl-alt-backspace kills X and defeats the whole purpose.

EDIT: I'll (hopefully) submit something tomorrow morning that will work better and without the bloat.

Would that be Xlockmore you are working on?

No, I'll package up slock from my hard drive install.

EDIT: I had to come backto this computer so it's packaged and submitted earlier than predicted.

Some X servers also allow you to disable ctrl+alt+bksp, but iirc the ones in (default) DSL do not have that option.
