[SOLVED] Using xss

I am now using xss-lock and i3lock to lock my screen.

In ~/.i3/config, I have

to run xss-lock with i3lock when starting i3.

In /etc/acpid/handler.sh, I configured acpid to run

when lid is closed.

This way, the laptop screen will be locked when either:* Keyboard and mouse being idle for some time (configurable by xset)* Lid is closed

So far so good. However, sometimes I want to lock screen manually when lid is open. So I add this to ~/.i3/config:

The result of this is, when pressing "Control + Mod1 + L", screen will be locked twice. That is to say, I have to type my password twice to unlock.

Obviously, I can bind "Control + Mod1 + L" to "sudo loginctl lock-sessions" to avoid typing passwords twice, but using "sudo" to lock my own session seems "unneat".

Does anyone know a proper way to do this? Thanks.
