The thing is, autostarted applications are way easier to edit than xinitrc, for the end-user. I don't know if gnome-screensaver already ship a .desktop autostart file, and I guess xscreensaver doesn't, but they could be shipped by Xfce, disabled by default, and user only has to choose which one he wants. There's xdg-screensaver too, but it's apparently quite insecure, and basically falls back to xscreensver under Xfce anyway. > I am afraid you can't do that by xscreensaver of gnome-screensaver.

I don't know, but I'd say that's something which should be designed/implemented in the screensaver themselves. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.xfce.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ Xfce-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-bugs
