Hi all, I'm working on my problem about screensaver that don't work after some update, and some reconfig. So I searched on google, and found that kscreensaver works also for root. I'm logged every time as root, for kind of activities that I have to do, and my screensaver worked well. It started afetr time configured, and locked the station. Now it doesn't start (only the screen becomes dark (not definitely black but with less light) and doesn't lock. I don't know why, but on my pc I didn't find nothing related to kscreensaver, even if kdebase is cerrectly installed. I think two things. First.. new kernel interfere with screensaver. Second.. I had kscreensaver configured, but now kscreensaver is not present. I'm using KDE So questions are: Why screensaver doesn't work for root, and before worked. How to recognise what screensaver is used (no daemon started) Why if I use Alt-Ctrl-L, or Menu -> Lock or the Applet on Panel to lock session, it works well (screensaver start and lock is good). If I can't solve this I will ask how to configure another user exactly as root (with all softwared configured). But I prefer to solve first the screensaver problem. Bye Ambrogio
