I also prefer the xscreensaver which can be configured to lock the screen after a bit and does so reliably.You can use xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver: aptitude remove gnome-screensaver aptitude install xscreensaver - Chris Considered doing that, but without some switch magik, apt wants to remove the whole kit and kaboodle of GNOME, which is not what I wanted. So, although the most obvious solution, it won't work. Cheers AG |
