A very simple bash script to unlock or lock the screen if a specific USB flash drive is plugged or unplugged. ##How to The current version of script requires manual (but easy) configuration before usage. I’ll try to extend the features in the next versions to make the initial configuration easier and without having to edit any files. In the descriptions below, we first collect the required information for out udev file (idVendor, idProduct and Serial) and then copy the files to their correct locations. 1) Clone the repository or download it as [zip] and extract it. 2) Connect your desired USB flash drive to your system. In the following command, replace Kingston with the name of the vendor of your flash disk then open a terminal and execute it: lsusb | grep "Kingston". The output should have a syntax similar to this: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0951:1643 Kingston Technology DataTraveler G3 4GB. Now we have idVendor and idProduct. In this example, idVendor is 0951 and idProduct is 1643. We also have the Bus and Device, which are respectly 001 and 005. We are going to use them in the next step.
