Title:
Change default screensaver away from "black screen"
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
1. Ubuntu 9.04
2. gnome-screensaver 2.24.0-0ubuntu6
On two separate recent 9.04 installations I was banging my head
against the wall trying to figure out why, no matter what settings I
chose, that gnome-power-manager was turning off my screen after 10
minutes. It never occurred to me that the issue was that the default
screensaver in gnome-screensaver is the black screen. It gave me no
indication that a screensaver was turning on because it didn't look
like a screensaver.
Changing the default screensaver to something other than black seems
the obvious choice. Alternatively, and probably more appropriate - is
to bring the gnome-screensaver and gnome-power-manager together under
a single interface.
