[Gllug] Screen Saver

[Mick Wilkinson]

Hi,
If you are a newbie (apologies if you are not) then be aware that there 
are issues regarding xscreensaver whilst logged in as root. Check the 
man pages and documentation. Easiest thing to do would be to log in as a 
user other than root and see if the screensaver works.

If you have already done that then I'm obviously talking out of my hat :)

Regards

Mick
