Hi all

I just upgraded to KDE3.4, I had a problem with 3.3 too, which is : Screensaver is enabled only for the user root. Anyone has any fixes for this? I re-emerged kscreensaver too, but still it doesn't help.

Add the user that you want to have screensavers to the video group.

to add a user to a group use the "usermod" command as root

Solved! Thanks! I did add the user to video by kuser but then when I did it again via usermod, it works! Hmmmmm...
