[Bug 516094] Re: the screen saver never starts
The screensaver didn't appeare and the gss-debug.txt file is still empty. Note that sometimes the screensaver appears. It seems it doesn't depend on the running desktop applications.

[Bug 516094] Re: the screen saver never starts
Those settings look okay. When the screensaver doesn't come up, is the gnome-screensaver process still running? Can you start it by hitting Ctrl-Alt-L? When this happens, do you have a context menu open, or an application such as VNC or Virtualbox? ** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- the screen saver never starts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I don't see something related to VNC or Virtualbox on my desktop environment. ** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- the screen saver never starts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 516094] Re: the screen saver never starts
I meant the shell was displaying the gnome-screensaver process name from ps with different dates for ever. Thus the screen wasn't frozen (in case the display was frozen with the latest screen instead of a black screen). -- the screen saver never starts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
