[Cooker] xscreensaver debugging messages
Whenever xscreensaver is triggered from the Gnome menu (Actions | Lock Screen) I'm seeing debugging (?) messages, in yellow Courier font, of the form: 12:59:08: xscreensaver: LOCK ClientMessage received: activated and locking (and about 10 similar lines) with, at the end: sent key ... on a new line every time I type a character of my password to unlock the screen. This happens with 'normal' screensavers, not the OpenGL ones.

[Cooker] xscreensaver and Gnome2
Latest Cooker install . . . I seem to remember this problem has been around for a while . . . There is a large list of xscreensavers available, but certain ones simply don't exist (at least on the default install) - so why are they on the list? And example is "engine" - it says "no preview" when selected, and when you click on "preview" the following error occurs: xscreensaver: 14:51:46: could not execute "engine": No such file or directory Current directory is: /home/rfox PATH is: /usr/X11R6/lib/xscreensaver /usr//bin <-- NOTE there are TWO "//" in there!!! /bin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/X11/bin /usr/games /home/rfox/bin xscreensaver:14:51:46: 0: child pid 10152 (engine) exited abnormally (code 1) Thx, R.Fox
[Cooker] xscreensaver-gl modules SIGSEGV with -fps
All of /usr/X11R6/lib/xscreensaver/* will crash with segmentation
violations if they are called with -fps parameter. Some (glpanet,
glsnake, molecule, and spheremonics) crash with {any|no} parameters.
stonerview does not crash with -fps as it does not accept the option.
Otherwise, all of the modules run nicely with other options.
At least some of the gl modules do not crash with the -fps parameter
as long as the dri module is not loaded on X startup. I have only
tried it with glforestfire, gears, and engine.
My system is dual P-3 machine on DVD266, the chipset requires agpgart
using agp_try_unsupported=1, but this has never been a problm before.
Video card is Radeon 64MB DDR. Relevant (as perceived by me) Packages:
XFree86-4.2.0-17mdk
xscreensaver-gl-4.05-2mdk
kernel-enterprise-2.4.19.1mdk-1-1mdk
I will provide any other information as requested.

Hi! Small problem with xscreensaver from 8.0: After locking I can't unlock anymore because it simply refuses my password: xscreensaver(pam_unix)[18014]: authentication failure; logname= uid=501 euid=501 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost= user=mr xscreensaver(pam_unix)[18014]: authentication failure; logname= uid=501 euid=501 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost= user=root I then can still login at a console. I installed xscreensaver-3.31-1mdk.i586.rpm from cooker to test, but that didn't help.

[Cooker] xscreensaver dependencies
Why is xscreensaver required by control-center and gnone-core? It is listed as an amusement, and I think 4M worth of screensavers is a waste of space for the little space I do have left.

Just out of curiousity, why hasn't Mandrake upgraded to the latest and greatest xscreensaver? It's up to 3.23, but Mandrake is still at 3.18... John
