What was the first Linux distribution you tried?
My first was Knoppix, it was pretty good I thought, and it supported my old hardware http://www.linuxforum.com/images/smilies/smile.png Too bad I couldn't figure out how to install it at the time though.

VLOCK-PLUGINS(5) Linux Programmer's Manual VLOCK-PLUGINS(5)
NAME
vlock-plugins - plugin support for vlock
DESCRIPTION
If vlock-main(8) is compiled with plugin support its default features are very limited: it can only lock the current session and ask for
authenticiaton. However it is possible to extend this functions through plugins. These plugins are loaded when vlock-main starts and can
provide hooks that are called at certain points during the lifetime of the vlock-main process.
DEFAULT PLUGINS
The following plugins are provided when installing vlock with default options:
all
This plugin locks all sessions by disabling console switching. It is also loaded when giving the -a,--all option to vlock(1).
new
This plugin switches to a new virtual console before disabling console switching through the "all" plugin. It is also loaded when
giving the -n,--new option to vlock(1).
nosysrq
Linux only. This plugin disables the Linux SysRQ mechanism before the console switching is locked by the "all" plugin. It is also
loaded when giving the -s,--disable-sysrq option to vlock(1).
ADDITIONAL PLUGINS
The following plugins are only available if explicitely selected at build time:
caca
This plugin runs a random libcaca screensaver when the screen is locked.
WRITING PLUGINS
For information about writing plugins see the PLUGINS file in the vlock source distribution.
