Screensaver at login?
Screensaver at login?
Been running the latest stable version for about a week but noticed that the screensaver is not activated at the login screen. Was running Fedora Core 4 which does allow monitor DPMS and screensaver. Is there a way to add it?
Re: Screensaver at login?
For DPMS, edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.stim141 wrote:Been running the latest stable version for about a week but noticed that the screensaver is not activated at the login screen. Was running Fedora Core 4 which does allow monitor DPMS and screensaver. Is there a way to add it?
Look for the "Monitor" section to add Option "DPMS":
Mine looks like this:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Selected Monitor"
HorizSync 31.5-48.5
VertRefresh 40-70
Option "DPMS"
EndSectionSection "Monitor"

No, DPMS is there and monitor power will go down when a user is logged in, not at the GNOME login screen - set power time low and left graphical login screen sit there - never blanked or turned off monitor. Read somewhere that you have to enable xscreensaver from within a config file but the post was'nt clear on how to do this. Something about modifying xconfig but my xconfig was totally blank - file did exist.
The easiest way is to edit your /etc/gdm/gdm.conf file.
Look for:
#BackgroundProgram=
and change ti to:
BackgroundProgram=xscreensaver -nosplash
I think that this only works with the "standard greeter".
