I've seen that, but the fact remains that when removing update-notifier.desktop gnome-screensaver doesn't pop up. The screensaver gets launched indirectly by the user's (session) dbus -- I'm not sure exactly what triggers this stupidity. > Also, having 2 screensavers installed is probably not a good idea. Some Some users on this computer run lxde, some run Gnome.

Those are bugs. But yes, given such bugs, I asked whether lxde should stick with xscreensaver any longer. That was one of my points. > The only solution is to remove one of them. Again, keep in mind that multiple users may log onto the same computer using different desktop environments. The whole freedesktop stuff was designed to grant more freedom of choice, not to create a rigid straitjacket. Besides, lxde depends on xscreensaver and ubuntustudio-desktop depends on gnome-screensaver. I'm not going to remove either. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
