I hope it's not too late to comment on this. I'm on Jaunty. I wandered

These are scans, which are pictures, which is why I saved them in my

I don't have an ~/.xscreensaver file, so I guess that's not the problem.

When I do "xscreensaver-getimage-file --verbose ~/Bilder" (my pictures folder),
I get only the one unhidden file. So, no problem here.

Sorry. I have now put up a package of the new xscreensaver built for

Unfortunately, the packages are not installable on 7.10 because of
dependency problems:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of xscreensaver:
xscreensaver depends on libc6 (>= 2.7-1); however:
Version of libc6 on system is 2.6.1-1ubuntu10.
xscreensaver depends on libcairo2 (>= 1.5.0

But nevertheless. The screensaver should never, ever show all pictures
out of $HOME, even if
# xdg-user-dirs-update --set PICTURES $HOME
is set.
The risk for exposing sensible information is to high. In my eyes gnome-
screensaver should display a information to set XDG_PICTURES_DIR to a

This isn't a bug in the screensaver. It's actually designed to work
that way :) It's just a configuration option that hasn't been well
documented.

The Pictures screensaver uses the XDG directories. Those are configured
in your ~/.config/user-dis.dirs file. Specifically the
"XDG_PICTURES_DIR" entry. If you adjust that it'll use a different set
of pictures.
