The xscreensaver daemon checks if the property (X resource) has been set and is not empty. So setting it to an empty value will get rid of the New Login button: echo "XScreenSaver.newLoginCommand: " | xrdb -merge ; xscreensaver-command -restart Individual users can put "XScreenSaver.newLoginCommand: " in their ~/.Xresources file. Adding other configuration possibilities, for instance in the preferences GUI, is not something I will look into. However, as you may see in bug 349000 I have plans for getting rid of the newLoginCommand default, and leave that to the desktop environment. So if you are using KDE, and KDE defines this newLoginCommand, they can provide a GUI option to disable this if they want. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Correction: I looked at the code and there is no run-time check whether the binary exists, the button is displayed if the newLoginCommand property has been set. So you have to remove or comment out that entry. Tormod -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

You can change the newLoginCommand entry in /etc/X11/app-defaults/XScreenSaver* to something that does not exist, and the "New login" button should go away. Maybe removing that entry does the trick also. Hope this helps, Tormod -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Package: xscreensaver Version: 5.05-3 Severity: wishlist I couldn't find anything in the man page (and haven't dug in to the code yet) but I use xscreensaver to lock my laptop screen, and a "new login" button is something I don't want to have.
