https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D240804 --- Comment #15 from John <jlmales@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Guido Falsi from comment #12) Re <https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D240804#c12> "Somewh= ere in your messages you ask me not to disable xscreensaver by default...why? Havi= ng BOTH enabled cannot work." Re <https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D240804#c10> "The question now is how should xfce handle two or more different screensav= ers on the system? In my opinion there are different pros and cons for any of = the possible solutions. One aspect to take into consideration is xscreensaver works on multiple DEs where as xfce4-screensaver likely only works with XFC= E4.=20 For those that have multiple DEs they can and do use it would seem likely, = but not a sure thing, that xscreensaver should take precedence as the screensav= er enabled for the DE, ergo precedence for XFCE4. This is just one thought of= a few approaches that I think merits some discussion to see what seems the be= st approach to take. I suspect this may be difficult discussion in that I can= see many approaches that may makes sense as well. I suggested the rational for xscreensaver based on xscreensaver most likely works in most, if not all DE= s.=20 That said discussion should occur to see what other thoughts are and the pros/cons of those before deciding what approach will be taken." --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
