In the MIT version of X, there was a screensaver facility in the server that was controllable via xset. OpenWindows (ie, xnews) doesn't seem to acknowledge this. Does anyone know if this is a known bug? Thanks, Frank G.

Did you set up the screen saver parameters via the xset command? These seem to have no effect with us. nico -- nico@micrognosis.los-gatos.ca.us Vique's Law: "A man without religion is like a fish without a bicycle."

I was wondering about that myself. The xset s command has no affect on the X server. If any one has any help to offer, please reply via e-mail.
