Running xscreensaver all the time
Is there anyway I can get xscreensaver to run all the time?
It works fine from my .xsession file, but I can't get it to work
from xdm. I want the screensaver to be present at all times,even
if no one is logged in (and I don't need screen locking).
I tried following the directions in xscreensaver's man page - so
I put the following line in Xsetup and Xsetup_0:
xscreensaver >> /tmp/xscreensaver.log 2>&1 &
The file /tmp/xscrensaver.log contains the following after restarting xdm:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
Error: Can't open display: :0
Obviously this is problem with getting access to the display. How do
I get around this?
