Frankly I have no idea. Previously there was another poster which had
this problem.
I am on xscreensaver 4.24 and I have the new-login button.
[ebuild R ] x11-misc/xscreensaver-4.24 USE="gnome jpeg krb4
new-login nls offensive opengl pam -insecure-savers -kerberos -xinerama"
0 k
I DIDN't do anything!
Looking at the bug-report and the contents of the file
$grep -i newlogin /etc/X11/app-defaults/XScreenSaver -B4
! This command is executed by the "New Login" button on the lock dialog.
! (That button does not appear if this program does not exist.)
!
*newLoginCommand: /usr/bin/gdmflexiserver
That line:
*newLoginCommand: /usr/bin/gdmflexiserver
was:
! *newLoginCommand: /usr/bin/gdmflexiserver
for me so I changed it and now it's working. I definitely didn't
comment that manually. Thanks for the help.
