[Solved] Best way to require login at resume

I had success installing Arch on my lovely x120e. Pretty much everything works how I'd like it to top to bottom, but now I'd like to tweak some of the finer points. First order of business is requiring login at resume. Currently I'm logging in with the basic shell and then startx runs automatically which launches Openbox. To enable Suspend I installed pm-utils, and added  sudo pm-suspend to my OB menu. This works perfectly, but ideally what I want is for the system to require a password on resume. I want to keep the system lean and mean, but I'm not against using a login manager (What are the good ones? CDM looks nice) if that is what is required.

You need a screen locker for X, such as:

  • slock

  • gnome-screensaver w/ xautolock

  • xscreensaver

Great things come in tar.xz packages.
