Try this post from this thread.
Hopefully it will work and you can then use the inbuilt lock on the OS.

As root (thanks to Austin Che), download and run: http://austinche.name/maemo/getlockcode
Or (showing how stupidly easy it is to get.. thanks Nokia):
sudo gainroot
chroot /mnt/initfs/
text2screen -t `strings /dev/mtd1ro | grep [0-9] | grep -v [a-zA-Z@] | tail -n 1` -s 3

Uh....Having ot hit the power button and select it?
But I personally don't see that as a downside.
Maybe that you can only use numbers. I would like to be able to use a text password, or a text and number password.

I have a question dealing my n810. I need some application wihich give me a possibility to block my device using password. I know that in OS is including "Device look" but unfortunatelly I'm not enable to change code ;/ I don't know it ;/ (OS was installing by me)
Thanks in advance for answers.
