Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Compiler: gcc 2.95 OS: Linux Control Center does not list my screen savers, although I can fins the files in $KDEDIR/share/applnk/Systen/ScreenSavers. Also, when I click the "Default"-button (or whatever it is named in english, the button below the list windos where the screen savers are supposed to be), I receive a signal 11 (SIGSEGV). Cannot trace any debugging symbols. The strange thing is that it worked the first few times I used the desktop. The [ScreenSaver] section in ~/.lde/share/config/kdesktoprc reads "..Saver=kdeartwork3-The_Matrix.desktop". I don't know if that is correct (I've selected Matrix, but is 'kdeartwork3'correct? Greetings Göran Källqvist
I also have this problem. Worked fine for awhile, then suddenly didn't work at all. My crash trace after clicking "Defaults.." is: (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...

same condition exists after update SuSE 8.2 KDE 3.1.x to 3.1.4 Linux 2.4.20-4GB-athlon #1 Wed Aug 6 18:27:52 UTC 2003 i686 GNU/Linux
screensaver modules list comes back and crash when <Default> button pressed goes away after... user login -> kcontrol->desktop->panels->menus->editKmenu RMB System->New SubMenu name it "ScreenSavers" then select KDE Menu Editor->Settings->Show Hidden Items and the System->ScreenSavers item shows a directory full of, you guessed it, screensavers that show up in the Kcm screensaver module from Kcontrol and Configure Desktop #B^] </cheers>

I'm not having any problems with any of the default screensavers shipped with KDE (from CVS HEAD). Assuming fixed.

has there been a patch for this yet....running mandrake 92 without screensavers...says resolved yet cant seem to find a fix for this...guessing not distro as many reports on this as well as suse and mdk having probs....please advise thanx
I just updated SuSE 8.2 to KDE3.2.1 All scrrensavers vanished from listbox in ControlCenter, but appear in LostAndFound menu... Uninstalling screensaver and reinstalling doesn't help... Several newsgroup-people are having related-seeming problems. I can't seem to find any fix - don't see how this is "resolved."
I guess it seems to be KDE artwork package problem. I have the same problems in Gentoo, with stable KDE (and unstable too, on two different computers). After first installation screensavers did show up OK. Since I had some problems with arts stability I added following USE tags to make.conf - alsa arts (opengl I had already before). Portage emerged newer versions of alsa alsa-utils arts kdeartwork xorg-x11 and some other packages. After that screensavers are not listed in Kcontrol. When I input Ctrl-Alt-L (to lock screen), screensaver starts just fine. But I cannot change screensaver nor does it start after idle timeout. Root user has all screensavers listed and it works perfectly. It may be some configuration file compatibility issue in ~/.kde .
