Re: [Bug 1216476] [NEW] Unlimited passwdTimeout

 

No. There is no sensible reason that anyone would want the unlock dialog
to stay on the screen for a week.

Also it will burn your screen. (Yes, this can still happen.)

Title:
  Unlimited passwdTimeout

Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 dev with xscreensaver 5.15-3ubuntu1. The option
  passwdTimeout controls how long the input screen for the password
  lasts. Maybe it would be useful if the option can be set natively to
  unlimited instead of using a very high value. Currently the value
  0:00:00 is invalid so maybe it could be an alias for unlimited.
