Selected 'system settings', 'display and monitor' then 'screen saver'. on selecting 'screen saver' the 'system settings' closes and brings up a bug report app. this was previously working. I have recently upgraded to Wheezy and have been checking things work. when first installed I got desktop effects such as 'magic lamp', 'explosion', 'wobbly windows'. I was pleased as this was the first time I had got these effects to work on my radean redwood card. I dont want to use my radeon disk as its non-free and prefer to use Debian/KDE free software. I have been using Linux for some years now and am familiar with Debian and can use script to a point but would class myself as 25% there. I am new to Debian KDE as I thought i was good enough to start using a more advanced system. Previously used Debian gnome. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. system settings 2. display and monitor 3. screen saver Actual Results: bye bye Expected Results: opened screen saver and allowed selection of maybe 'aquarium' i think thats the name.
