No Screensaver in Gnome

#1 Post by Carlosinfl »

I just installed Gnome 2.12 on Etch and used Apt.

Code: Select all

#apt-get install x-window-system gdm gnome-core
Now I noticed I don't have a screensave option to set. Is this something I need to install additionally?

Please help!

And if you want fancy 3D screensavers do:

Code: Select all

apt-get install xscreensaver-gl
