Bug#487633: GL screensavers are no longer starting after recent update of xserver-xorg-core
Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.4.1~git20080517-1~lenny1
Severity: normal
After the recent update (Jun. 22, 2008) of xserver-xorg-core I got a black screen if I
try to start or configure one of the GL screensavers, regardless if I try it from the
KDE configuration panel or the ScreenSaver Preferences.
KDE just gave a blank screen without error message, ScreenSaver Preferences report "Not
Installed".
I could not solve the problem downgrading to the previous version of xserver-xorg-core,
the problem still exist after it. I had to restore a partition image. I set the
package currently on hold.
