Reinhard,
I did the test again, following these steps:
1) I was using this version of gnome-screensaver:
$ apt-cache policy gnome-screensaver
Instalado: 2.28.0-0ubuntu2
Candidato: 2.28.0-0ubuntu2
Tabela de versão:
*** 2.28.0-0ubuntu2 0
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
2) Then I downloaded the version of the PPA:
$ ls gnome*
gnome-screensaver_2.28.0-0ubuntu1+motumedia1_amd64.deb
3) I installed it with the command:
$ sudo dpkg -i gnome-screensaver_2.28.0-0ubuntu1+motumedia1_amd64.deb
4) Confirmed the installation:
$ apt-cache policy gnome-screensaver
gnome-screensaver:
Instalado: 2.28.0-0ubuntu1+motumedia1
Candidato: 2.28.0-0ubuntu2
Tabela de versão:
2.28.0-0ubuntu2 0
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
*** 2.28.0-0ubuntu1+motumedia1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
5) Rebooted. (I didn't do that in the previous test)
6) And then it WORKED! For the first time I could watch a movie using
VLC in Karmic.
Thanks a lot!
