Hi,

...

it's ok with YaST to manage the tweak.

...

Try it if you wish, you can always upgrade if you feel so.

...

Go to YaST-> Software Management

...

In the "filter" choose "Search"

...

Search for kdebase3. On the right pane, ensure "kdebase3" (the "single" one, not kdebase3-devel, etc) is highlighted.

...

Below that pane, you'll have several tabs, one is "Versions". Click on it.

...

Select the 3.5.1-69 (so, not the .15). Click "Accept".

...

This procedure will ensure your worries about dependencies will go well :-) If the result is not the expected (the recovery of the screensavers), you can update to the .15 again the same way, or by one of your choice.

Downgrading to 3.5.1-69 brought back my screensaver, so it would appear that you were right -- the kdebase-3.5.1-69.15 patch must have been what caused the screensaver to stop working.

...

There are other ways, though. You might want later to try "smart".

...

HTH,

...
