better yet, why not have it read your brainwaves. 8^D ;) actually
thought that would be neat functionality. It has nothing to do with gdm
or early-login though. Really its just xscreensaver + some other
userspace app that does a xscreensaver-command --lock when your phone
goes out of range. you could do that regardless. Doesn't keeping
bluetooth running and communicating with your system suck the batteries
dry pretty fast though? :)
