10.6: Lock the screen via a keyboard shortcut
Authored by: burtonernie on Jan 26, '10 03:31:46AM

the original hint here using automator didn't work for me (OS 10.6.2). i tried several different key combinations and all resulted in that horribly annoying "boink" sound. did i do something wrong? is that sound just telling me that the keys i chose were already assigned? (i figured it would tell me so more clearly if that were the case).

regardless of all the comments, yes I DO want to start screen saver and not just lock the screen. i already know how to put the thing to sleep. but i have a very nice screensaver and i quite enjoy looking at it as i'm doing other things.

THANKS!!!
