you are correct. And I finally found, under the Debian menu ( that would be the gnome Apps??) under system -control panel-screensaver. the screensaver was CHECKED. I unchecked it. I run KDE, but... I guess some gnome apps are installed and executable. thanks for the tips. I wonder why it got turned on, when I wasn't running it before, and all I did was the "normal" aptitude updates... running Debian Lenny. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
