I have had this problem in both SuSE 10.1 and 10.2. After the video driver upgrade, many or most screensavers just leave you with a blank screen. There are several things that can do this and these items must be adjusted first. 1. Kpowersave/Scheme Settings - Uncheck "Enable specific screensaver settings" and uncheck "Enable specific display power management" 2. Configure Desktop - Right click on the Desktop and pick "Configure Desktop". Pick the Display option on the left and then the "Power Control" Tab. Uncheck the "Enable Display Power Management". 3. Finally, the fix I found on the internet. Navigate to your home folder. You must have the option to view hidden files checked "View/Show Hidden Files": /home/username/.kde/share/config Edit the file "kdesktoprc" Add the following line under the ScreenSaver Heading: [ScreenSaver] DPMS-dependent=false Performing the three steps always allows the KDE screensavers to work for me on every system I have tried it on. I like the GLMATRIX screen saver the best. I always try to use an nVidia Video card.
