 * Here's debian.README a.k.a /usr/doc/copyright/xlockmore

This is Debian/GNU Linux's prepackaged version of the 'xlock' utility.
'xlock' locks the X server till the user enters their password at the 
keyboard. 'xlock' was originally written by Patrick J. Naughton, the 
'xlockmore' extended version is written and maintained by David A. Bagley.

This package was put together by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@qed.econ.queensu.ca>
from the sources at ftp.x.org/contrib/applications/xlockmore-3.0.tar.gz.
No changes other than adding the Debian package maintenance system were made.

Note that under XFree86, the X11 implementation for Linux, Control-Alt-
Backspace will defeat locking mechanism and return your console back unless 
you put "DontZap" in your XF86Config file. 'xdm' returns to the login prompt.
Control-Alt-F1 (among others) will defeat locking mechanism with virtual 
terminals, so make sure that you are not logged onto any virtual consoles.

Note that the copyright is very different from usual Debian copyrights.
