Description Richard Allen 2006-12-11 00:02:09 UTC
Description of problem:
rss-glx screensavers do not work under KDE

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rss-glx-0.8.1.p-6.fc6
rss-glx-xscreensaver-0.8.1.p-6.fc6
rss-glx-kde-0.8.1.p-6.fc6
rss-glx-gnome-screensaver-0.8.1.p-6.fc6

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install FC6, KDE and rss-glx
2. Log in to KDE, open the screensaver preferences
3. All regular GL screensavers work, RSS ones do not.
  
Actual results:
Not even the preview of the screensavers in the little previw window works
The full screen preview does not either.
And after the Idle timeout kicks in, the screensaver does not start

Expected results:
Working RSS screensavers

Additional info:
I can however start all the screensavers manually from the command line and then
they work.

Comment 1 Julian Sikorski 2006-12-26 20:37:18 UTC
This problem is caused by the fact that rss-glx-kde .desktop files invoke
kxsconfig, which is provided by kdeartwork-extras. The thing is that
kdeartwork-extras is not required by rss-glx-kde. Other thing here is that
kdeartwork-extras pulls xscreensaver-extras and xscreensavergl-extras, so IMHO
the better way would be to package kxsconfig for instance with kdeartwork (that
would require cooperating with core maintainers, though). Hope that helps.

I have filed an appropriate bug report, see bug #220784.

Thanks alot :)
