I think you need to set XDG_RUNTIME_DIR when using xfce, also
I thought that was set somehow via dbus. On my system (NetBSD
11.0 RC5), XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set to /tmp or the value of
$TMPDIR.
Do you have "dbus=YES" in /etc/rc.conf ?
How does xscreensaver run when using ctwm ?

Thanks.

Hello Jhon
netbsd-nuc# cat /etc/rc.conf|grep bus
dbus=YES
When it failed yesterday I also tested it in CTWM under a fresh new user and
failed.
But now it is working fine even though the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR error is shown. I
notice
that when running "xscreensaver &" it does not show the usual splash screen
(usually I used to issue --no-spash parameter to avoid that).
I do not understand. I do not know why sometimes works and sometimes does not.
I will continue testing.
Ramiro.
Complete nonsense, now in my Thinkpad x260 it also works and I am sure that
yesterday it failed.
