OK, I understand. Had a quick trawl through my logfiles, but can't see any other error messages related to X or GDM. OTOH, currently my xscreensaver is completely disabled. Are there any pointers you could provide for things to try out? Special places to search?

Please check with other GL stuff the logs. I'll let this bug open but I don't believe is a xscreensaver bug. Regards. - -- Jose Luis Rivas. San Cristóbal, Venezuela.
