 @defvar screen-locker-service-type
 Type for a service that adds a package for a screen locker or screen
-saver to the set of setuid programs and add a PAM entry for it.  The
+saver to the set of setuid programs and/or add a PAM entry for it.  The
 value for this service is a @code{<screen-locker-configuration>} object.
 
+While the default behavior is to setup both a setuid program and PAM
+entry, these two methods are redundant.  Screen locker programs may not
+execute when PAM is configured and @code{setuid} is set on their
+executable.  In this case, @code{using-setuid?} can be set to @code{#f}.
+
 For example, to make XlockMore usable:
 
 @lisp
 (service screen-locker-service-type
          (screen-locker-configuration
-           "xlock" (file-append xlockmore "/bin/xlock") #f))
+           (name "xlock")
+           (program (file-append xlockmore "/bin/xlock"))))
 @end lisp
 
 makes the good ol' XlockMore usable.
+
+For example, swaylock fails to execute when compiled with PAM support
+and setuid enabled.  One can thus disable setuid:
+
+@lisp
+(service screen-locker-service-type
+         (screen-locker-configuration
+           (name "swaylock")
+           (program (file-append xlockmore "/bin/xlock"))
+           (using-pam? #t)
+           (using-setuid? #f)))
