--flDc4cbvG5Y7qIjC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi Adam, An update on the results here. The rebuild has finished earlier today. And I have to say, that I am still = seeing xscreensaver crashing on this machine, with corresponding core files= cluttering up the logged in users' home dirs. Again, the xscreensaver configuration hasn't been touched, and is left to t= he defaults for everything. Is there something else I can check for what's causing these screensaver cr= ashes? Thanks.
