Hi.
The xscreensaver fails on the video workstations.
When I lock, then type my password, I get this...
[X_SetScreenSaver error]
It doesn't bother me, since I just re-run it,
but I thought it might bother you a bit.
Thanks!
It does bother me. Unfortunately, I have yyet to be able to figure
out why it's happening. It's been reported from several people, but
it *only* happens on the workstations in 11-113, so I am leaning
toward the theory that it is a bug in the X server on those machines.
When I get a chance I will play with it down in 11-113 and see if I
can figure out what's happening. Thanks for reporting it.
