Same happens on a fresh-install of F25 + installation of xscreensaver

Comment 2 Mamoru TASAKA 2016-12-12 14:37:37 UTC
If you are using GNOME, try X, not wayland.

Comment 3 J.Jansen 2016-12-14 14:51:47 UTC
I changed my login to GNOME on Xorg but the problem is still there.

Comment 4 J.Jansen 2016-12-14 14:54:38 UTC
However is fixed another problem I had : Writeable colour maps using DirectColor visual (i.e. in crystal,swirl and stardish) did not work using wayland but work again with Xorg.

Comment 5 J.Jansen 2016-12-15 08:20:33 UTC
Looks like that only switching to X does not help : After a reboot xscreensaver locks the screen.

However IMHO it should also work for Wayland....
