BL>In the menu, there are two options, ``Blank Screen'' and ``Lock
BL>Screen''. When Auto-Lock is on, they both do the same thing.
BL>Wouldn't it be better for the ``Blank Screen'' option never to require
BL>a password?
Probably - the problem is that clicking either left or right buttons
alone on the icon will Blank Screen unless auto-lock is on in which
case it does Lock Screen. This can probably be fixed... someone who is
doing some work on the screensaver now may have time to look into it.
BL>Also, the time displayed is one hour slow.
Only on 5.5 workstations, as far as we know; that binary was compiled
under 6.0a, so has the *real* timezone fixes, which mean it doesn't
compensate at all under 5.5. I suspect that this will not be fixed
until the 6.0 release hit the field...
