It looks like I didn't communicate my problem effectively. I did a clean install of FC5 (32-bit) on my Dell 8500 laptop. When I go to System->Preferences->Screensaver under Gnome, the interface is decidedly different than that of FC4. For example, the checkboxes where individual screensavers can be selected are missing. I *think* what I need is to be able to do is deselect the one that represents a blank screen, or there is something in power management that is causing the display to blank after a while; perhaps 10 minutes. Any insight will be much appreciated. I realize that this is a trivial matter in the big picture, but I would like to have things working in FC5 that worked in FC4. Jim
