Anyone had luck with running Kde2.2 with the screensavers working?
How did you go about activating the screensavers? I try to activate mine
here but end up with blank screen all the time. Initially they seemed to
work until either,
(i) I changed the perms on *.kss in /usr/local/bin to 4555 or
(ii) I did
 cd ~wash
rm -rf .kde/
I am not sure which but I just upgraded to Kde2.2 on FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE
and trust me, I never had the screensavers work with Kde2.1. With XFCE
they seem to work okay, even with gdm (this monster corrupts the file
system, no?)

Just looking out for ideas.

I searched Kde list archives but it would appear that Kde was actually
meant for Linux, with which I don't have much hands-on experience.

Thanks
