Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
Reproducable. xubuntu 9.10 some more package informations: see end of message. "long" version, see : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8876912#post8876912 "short" version: After installing the package "rss-glx" all GL-screensavers (e.g. AntSpotLight) show a black screen instead of any GL-animation in the preview-windows (the small and the big one). The simple screensavers still work (e.g. the Gnome feets). My final steps were these, otherwise I got the black screen: -> Uninstalling gnome-screensaver (the additional packages may remain) and the proprietary graphics driver (reboot). -> Installing all the packages for gnome-screensaver incl. the pretty "rss-glx"-package (aka Really Slick Screensavers), but at this point not the gnome-screensaver itself (reboot for safety). -> Installing gnome-screensaver, the GL-screensaver work again (no black screen), but terrible slow, of course. -> Installing the proprietary driver again, all GL-screensavers are still working. Also I wasn't able to use "xorg-driver-fglrx" instead of the proprietary driver: After installing the package "xorg-driver-fglrx" (and the dependencies) in same order of steps as describes as above (incl. reboots before that, because of uninstalling the proprietary driver), I got the black screen again. If you need any logs, please tell me where to find them. If I shall do any actions to log and for logging, please tell me.
