i don't even know what the package light-locker is as i don't see it here and i have lightdm installed (but i'm running testing and bits of unstable so perhaps it's not come by yet). i have a dislike for screen savers and auto anything that interferes with my system so i've masked out some power stuff and screen savers to keep them from getting in the way. it's very annoying when other people make assumptions about how i want to do things. > and either installing xdm or just using startx to get X11 and > XFCE up when you want it. ditto! songbird
