Description Mark H Johnson 2001-08-09 12:56:44 UTC
Description of Problem:
After activating the screensaver (by time out or menu selection), the
display is locked but the selected screensaver does not display.

How Reproducible:
Activate a screen saver, lock the display, look at the results.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In preferences, look & feel, activate a screen saver (I used bouboule)
2. Click test, see it work, type to return to window & select OK
3. Select "lock screen" from the KDE menu.

Actual Results:
Display is basically unchanged. If you move the mouse or type - the
password dialog box appears. Not typing a password leaves a white box in
the center of the display after a short time out. If you type the password,
the display is unlocked.

Expected Results:
It worked as it did in RH 7.1
