So then either Mageia doesn't have a screensaver by default, or something else is wrong. > Now the question: why is it enabled in Debian and disabled in Mageia? I > have not found a way to disable it in Debian for a more equal test. The command to disable it is xdg-screensaver suspend <window-id> where <window-id> is an X11 window id for a window to track. This is what VLC is supposed to do. Could you please try running sh -x /usr/bin/xdg-screensaver suspend $(xwininfo -root|grep "Window id:"| cut -d' ' -f4) and send me the output? Also check if it stops the screensaver from running. You can enable the screensaver again with xdg-screensaver resume $(xwininfo -root|grep "Window id:"| cut -d' ' -f4) -- Pelle -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
