Hi,

I'm playing with a new client, a Mini-ITX Thin Client. There are two things I cannot solve:

1. When I attach my printer to its lp0, it says nothing. The values in lts.conf etc. are all correct. Yast says, there is a printer server online on this machine. Other machines here (ordinary PC hardware) work flawlessly this way.

2. After a while, the screen went black while I was still logged in. Is it possible that X overrules KDE here? The screen saver is switched off. I wasn't aware of this as the other clients here usually are not left alone for such a long period of time (15 minutes?). I used to think this going black was limited to XDM.

So,

- does anyone have an idea why this client might refuse to print, while others run with the same settings?

- And is there a way of disabling this screen saving thing?

At this point, I had an idea. The other day, there was a thread of someone who was looking for a way of shutting down the clients with rights management. Now, couldn't one combine this feature with the screen saving script(?) of X so it switches off every client which has not been in use for, say, 30 minutes? But then, it would have to be limited to XDM only, because when someone is logged in, this will be a rather nasty thing :-)
