I can confirm this again!
I am having the same issue. I have had no problems with RH 7.3 on this topic. I can preview the screensaver, but when it activates, there is only the black screen. I am using a ATI Rage 128.
I have the same problem. Is this ATI Rage related, I have a XPert2000 Pro (Rage 128Pro chip)?
I have the same issue. When screen saver is selecte either in KDE or Gnome, when I select lock, I get a black screen. Also, when a screen saver is supposed to kick in at the alotted time, the same thing takes place. However, when testing screen saver settings, everything seems to be working just fine.
It's fixed in kdebase-3.0.3-15 or newer. You will find it in next rawhide release
I have the same problem, and it's not video-card related. If it's fixed in 3.0.3-15, what is "rawhide"? Is that an update or fix for Psyche?
Why not redhat deliver this out as a Errata?
I just installed all the necessary packages in rawhide to upgrade kdebase as the bugzilla suggests. Any single screensaver works, but I can only get a blank screen when I set the screensaver to Random. It is not the "Blank Screen" saver in the list as I changed its color and it does not show up when the screensaver activates.
My screensavers work fine; but when I click on the Settings button, to adjust the 'speed', or the type of decay (with the DecayScreen screensaver particularly), a crash occurs. Is this the same bug, and hence has been fixed in "Rawhide" (whatever Rawhide might be) ? Thanks.
