Are you using the open source Nouveau driver or the nVidia proprietary drivers.
nVidia: NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.37 ...
If you want a screen saver that uses as low resources as possible, why are you using a GL based photo slide show screensaver
The screensaver per se is not the problem. The effects are the problem. Anyway, after some further search I found that this is a KDE bug already: Bug 182104 - Specific transition effect of the slideshow screensaver is extremely slow https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=182104 And there is also a workaround: "Paul Lemmons 2011-12-16 20:37:47 UTC ..."I wish I could simply disable all transition effects."... Add the following line: EffectsEnabled=false to the end of the file: ~/.kde/share/config/kslideshow.kssrc And your wish is granted" In my case I had to add this to the end of the file ~/.kde4/share/config/kslideshow.kssrc and the effects are stopped which is what I wanted. Problem gone although the cause (slow transition effects) is still there and the corresponding button to switch these effects off is missing. Therefore "[WORKAROUND]" instead of "[SOLVED]". ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
