Description Thomas 2004-06-16 09:31:40 UTC 
Version:           2.0 (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.2 
OS:                Linux

Once the "Start screen saver automatically" box is clicked
the screen saver is permanently disabled. Clicking the box
again will "X" the box, but the screen saver will not
automatically activate.
2.6.3-7mdk
gcc 3.3.2
Mandrake Linux 10.0.3.3.2mdk
Comment 1 Thomas 2004-06-16 11:57:27 UTC 
Ignore most of what I previously said. Swarm will not run. Mouse
pointer will disappear and password lock will be enabled, but
swarm will not be displayed.
Comment 2 Chris Howells 2004-08-28 00:09:40 UTC 
Does this problem only occur with swarm? e.g. Can you reproduce it with other screensavers, if so which one?
Comment 3 Thomas 2004-08-28 02:23:31 UTC 
This problem was only with swarm.
I have since upgraded to Kde 3.2.3 and use xscreensaver.

Does the Test button in the screensaver control panel activate swarm successfully?

OK, the swarm screensaver is broken.

Thanks for the report.
