[Solved] Screensaver
Posts: 5
I'm running Mepis 6.0 which auto installs powersave. If I leave powersave running the screensavers work fine. When I disable powersave I no longer get screensavers. Have a AMD64 Athlon on a ECS KN1 Lite motherboard w/ Nividia 6500 PCIE video. This PC runs 24/7 so I don't want powersave (OK for laptops I guess). Anyone got an idea on this.

Thanks, I did what you advised and my screensaver works! I never thought it was a bug in KDE, I thought it was something I did playing around. I played with the power save options, set them and then test and see what happens. It was driving me crazy! Thanks again!
Worked great but now I can not set a wallpaper any longer??

I covered this in a previous post this may be your problem.
Here is a repeat copy of text of solution:
Final version 6.0 there is a bug in kde 3.5 that may be causing problem was okay in previous releases.This is what I did and has worked on 2 computers now with no problems.If a different version of Mepis maybe someone else can help you.
If you wish to try this go in Root first and back up this file libkdeinit_kdesktop.so found in root/user/lib in case this does not work for you.
Go to: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=42637&PHPSESSID=c09609f04b0207cc30ee70bae78fca9c
and download file 42637-kdesktop_3.5.3-0ubuntu0.2_FIX_i386.
After downloaded I clicked on 42637-kdesktop_3.5.3-0ubuntu0.2_FIX_i386 file then on user then click on lib folder right click and copy libkdeinit_kdesktop.so within this folder.
Now go to root/user/lib and right click paste libkdeinit_kdesktop.so it will ask you to overwrite file this is okay.
After you have done this reboot computer and try screensaver again in user mode and it should be okay.
