You can specify from which screensavers xscreensaver(1) should "randomly" choose. Make a list of ones that do not crash. You can put them in your resources file for example, xscreensaver.timeout: 5 xscreensaver.cycle: 5 xscreensaver.splash: off xscreensaver.programs: \ bubbles -root -nodelay -broken \n\ bubbles -root -nodelay -simple \n\ compass -root \n\ coral -root \n\ . . . -- Crist J.
