When I ran gnome-screensaver in debug mode it seems that it cannot get the focus, so it bails. Log below: [main] gnome-screensaver.c:86 (11:19:14): initializing gnome-screensaver 3.4.1 [init_session_id] gs-listener-dbus.c:1473 (11:19:14): Got session-id: /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Session12 [gs_fade_init] gs-fade.c:920 (11:19:15): Fade type: 3 [set_status] gs-watcher-x11.c:346 (11:19:15): GSWatcher: not active, ignoring status changes [gs_watcher_set_active] gs-watcher-x11.c:277 (11:19:15): turning watcher: ON [listener_dbus_handle_system_message] gs-listener-dbus.c:854 (11:19:15): obj_path=/org/freedesktop/DBus interface=org.freedesktop.DBus method=NameAcquired destination=:1.1608 [gs_watcher_set_active] gs-watcher-x11.c:277 (11:19:15): turning watcher: ON [gs_watcher_set_active] gs-watcher-x11.c:281 (11:19:15): Idle detection is already active [on_bg_changed] gs-manager.c:596 (11:19:15): background changed [gs_manager_set_lock_active] gs-manager.c:168 (11:19:20): Setting lock active: 1 [gs_grab_grab_root] gs-grab-x11.c:536 (11:19:20): Grabbing the root window [gs_grab_get_keyboard] gs-grab-x11.c:153 (11:19:20): Grabbing keyboard widget=B8 [gs_grab_get_keyboard] gs-grab-x11.c:168 (11:19:20): Couldn't grab keyboard!
