I have configured kscreensaver to start automatically after a 5 minute
delay. It works all right until I take over the desktop remotely, using
the x11vnc. When viewed through vnc, when I release the mouse, the
screensaver starts immediately. (It used to work all right a couple of
releases back, I'm not sure when, I didn't use vnc for many months now)

Yes,
I also have to disable the screensaver when I take over my home computer
running x11vnc 0.8.3 remotely from work with tightvnc_viewer.
I have Mandriva Linux with KDE 3.5.4.
Karl Runge thinks it may be a bug in kdesktop_lock:
http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/#faq:
Q-42: Help! x11vnc and my KDE screensaver keep switching each other on and off
every few seconds.
This is a new (Jul/2006) problem seen, say, on the version of KDE that is
shipped with SuSE 10.1. It is not yet clear what is causing this... If you move
the mouse through x11vnc the screensaver shuts off like it should but then a
second or two after you stop moving the mouse the screensaver snaps back on.
This may be a bug in kdesktop_lock. For now the only workaround is to disable
the screensaver. You can try using another one such as straight xscreensaver.

I have traced this down to a DPMSInfo() call in the kdesktop_lock
Even though there has been mouse or keyboard input to wake kdesktop_lock
up and cause it to turn off the screen saver, kdesktop_lock (or a
respawned process of it) checks DPMSInfo() and if it sees the Monitor
is in a low power state ("standby", "suspend", or "off") it turns on
the screensaver again.
I'm not sure if this is the desired behavior of kdesktop_lock or not to
discard the recent mouse/keyboard input information...
I have put in a workaround to x11vnc for this, the -nodpms option where
it will keep the Monitor in the DPMS "on" state whenever VNC clients
are connected.

i can confirm it too, and i use kde's own vnc tools (krdc and krfb).
so for now the only real fix is to revert patch like mentioned in bug

[Bug 184682] Re: kscreensaver immediately reengages when attempting to connect to the system with VNC
Shortly after I discovered this bug, I found that I could work around it by updating to the version of x11vnc in the backport repository. Because this version of x11vnc is now in Hardy, I would assume that the problem does not occur there. Sadly, I cannot test this, as my old Linux PC broke down, and the laptop I got to replace it, though all of its hardware was (intentionally) customized for Linux support, does not work very well with Ubuntu. Therefore, I have had to switch back to Windows :-( -- kscreensaver immediately reengages when attempting to connect to the system with VNC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

This is a known problem in kdesktop_lock (in the kdesktop package). A workaround is to pass the '-nodpms' parameter to x11vnc. See http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/#faq-kde-screensaver for more details.
