Description of problem:
If the settings for Xscreensaver are changed in the gnome settings panel,
they are ignored and are not written out to a configuration file for future
sessions.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open up the Xscreensaver control panel
(Gnome->Programs->Settings->Desktop->Screensaver)

2.  Change the settings to start after five minutes or 1 minute or whatever.
3.  Hit apply, then close.
	

Actual Results:  Nothing happens.  Xscreensaver still starts after the
default value of twenty minutes.

Expected Results:  The time to activate the screensaver should have been
changed from the default value of 20 to 5 minutes.

We (Red Hat) should really try to fix this before next release.
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2002-03-04 21:11:43 UTC 
Was this fixed in final 7.2?
Comment 3 Eric Schaffner 2002-03-04 22:55:13 UTC 
It works for me with the final release.  It looks like it got fixed between 
Roswell 1 and 2.
Comment 4 Havoc Pennington 2002-03-04 23:05:13 UTC 
Thanks, sounds good.
