Bug#753793: xscreensaver not an issue of MATE

[Mike Gabriel]

Control: tag -1 wontfix

Hi Markus,

launching xscreensaver is not the task of MATE per se. MATE Desktop  
ships its own screensaver, the package is called mate-screensaver.

If you install xscreensaver and mate-screensaver at the same time,  
then both will have a configuration menu in System -> Settings.

The MATE screensaver gets launched automatically on session startup,  
whereas xscreensaver does not.

If you want to use xscreensaver in MATE sessions, please remove  
mate-screensaver.

If you want to get rid of the xscreensaver settings in System ->  
Settings, then uninstall xscreensaver.

I will close this non-bug, but feel free to continue the discussion on  
our mailing list pkg-mate-team.

Thanks+Greets,
Mike
