My screensavers in KDE don't work! All the screensaver executables are there in /usr/X116R/lib/xscreensaver/ and if I click on one it runs fine in a window. However when a screensaver is supposed to start by itself I just get a blank screen. If I run xscreensaver-demo from a terminal it tells

[newbie] xscreensaver not getting images from directory

2002-10-29 Thread Paul Rodriguez
Hi, I have noticed that in Mandrake 9.0, xscreensaver is not properly getting images from the specified directory. When it needs an image from there, it just works with the checkerboard default. It will, however, capture a screen image just fine. - Paul Want to buy your Pack or Services
