xscreensaver does not lock



Hi,

 I am at a loss to understand why xscreensaver does not work anymore.

 I am on bullseye. I have two systems the other, however, works fine and
locks.

 xscreensaver does not seem to have any debug facility from what I could
read from the man pages.

 My config is attached. xscreensaver never gets activated although the
daemon is running in the background.

 xscreensaver binary itself is installed as setuid-root.

 Please help ! thanks.

PS: I tried to compile from source so that I can introduce debugs. This
went in vain since there are too many dependencies and I was not
successful in compiling.
