------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-06-10 20:46 ------- Please do not distribute that patch. You misunderstand the purpose of that option -- it tells xscreensaver to do *nothing* (e.g., when watching a DVD, don't touch the screen.) It should *not* lock in that mode, because that would interfere with movie playing or whatever. "Blank Only" and the other modes *do* lock. You are right that more feedback would be useful. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: I run gnome session and I tried to lock the screen from my computer and selected the appropriate icon from the main menu. But locking screen did not start and I did not even get any warning or error message boxes explaining that it can not be done. First I thought that the menu was there even thought I did not have xscreensaver installed but rpm -qa | grep xscree xscreensaver-4.12-1mdk shows that it is. Then I remembered that I have disapled screensaver in the gnome configuration menu. I activated screensaver and tried again to lock the screen but still nothing happened. After logging the user away from the gnome session and logging in again I was able to lock the screen. I think that user should be able to lock the screen even if he do not want to start screensaver after certain period.
