In my gentoo box, after emerging kde only a few screensavers were available. Then I emerged xscreensaver and the same few screensavers are still available.

How can I make all the screensavers included in xscreensaver appear in kde too?

Thanks!

You have to re-emerge kdeartwork with the USE xscrennsaver set
Code:

#USE=" xscreensaver" emerge kdeartwork

Hmmmm.... Re-emerging puts the right .desktop files in /usr/kde/3.3/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers. But the menu still shows the same screensavers. As root (where I have not configured all the details of KDE) I deleted all .kde directories. After starting X, all screensavers appeared.

So to make all screensavers appear in kde desktop, I guess I have to delete some config file in my .kde dir. But which one? I don't want to lose all my settings.

Thanks again!

try
Code:

#chmod a+r /usr/bin/xscreensaver


It's a problem I thought was solved since kde 3.3.2

Glad I found, this had the same trouble, the steps in this thread cleared it right up.


Thanks!
