[Mikicrepstudios]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using the latest major release or the current development version. These are the only supported versions.

Current Behavior

I don’t see a link to logs.i3wm.org. Did you follow https://i3wm.org/docs/debugging.html? (In case you actually provided a link to a logfile, please ignore me.)

If you're using Dunst, you can pause notifications before locking and unpause them afterward (see the dunst man page).

This is the binding you're looking for:

bindsym $mod+l exec "killall -USR1 dunst; i3lock --nofork; killall -USR2 dunst"

nope, i dont use dunst
