No the problem is the screen savers do not come on in Gnome.  I followed
the directions from the links in the earlier email and removed
gnome-screensaver.  I set the triger time very low as the dot
xscreensaver file shows.  No screen saver comes up.  I have it set for
random.

Hi Carl,

I could be wrong, but I thought the solution was to pick one screensaver 
program to use and 'turn off' the other one. Isn't that what was discussed in 
the longer thread I referred you to?

Tried that turned down start time to a minute and still no screen saver.
Here is my Dot xscreensaver file.  BTW screen savers work in KDE.
What am I doing wrong??

Tried that it did not work.  Does not even let me change from one minute
to four.  Also no editing of schemeas in the gnome configuration editor.
So how do I turn these things on.

Hi Carl,

I seem to recall experiencing this problem in GNOME on 10.0. I eventually 
discovered the problem was contention between the two installed and activated 
by default screensavers: one GNOME, the other a generic x-screensaver.

I can't recall the label they used for the gnome 'control center' or 'desktop 
settings' icon, but it should be located in the 'System' menu off your panel. 
It's the one where you can open up gnome-sessions, adjust window behaviors, 
set your default fonts, etc.

hth & regards,

Carl
