Re: [expert] lock screen
Desktop enviroment is KDE 3 I believe that I upgraded via an update packages scheme since I did not load in a clean install and I did not redo the partitions. Currently, when I click on lock screen, nothing happens. --- UPDATE!!! --- Disregard the thread, problem solved Turns out that the screen saver to be used had been flushed as a result of the upgrade. Thus when I went to lock the screen, an invalid screen saver was selected. I simply selected one the the few screen savers left, and TADA! fixed! Thanks for the replies. Sometimes one can't see the forest 'cause the trees are in the way!
