That's a good sign, as that is the full command gnome-screensaver runs when the cosmos screensaver is activated. See /usr/share/applications/screensavers/cosmos-slideshow.desktop Do you get any error messages if you run gnome-screensaver-preferences from a terminal and switch between different screensavers, including cosmos? Another thing you could try is to run gnome-screensaver with --no-daemon and/or --debug from a terminal and see if you can catch anything interesting. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
