gnome screensaver-gnome docs
I am trying out gnome on SUSE 10.0 and I'm getting frustrated trying to change things. where is the best place for a good DOC on gnome setup & admin??? for instance, I've looked all over and I can't figure out how to change the screensaver. in KDE it was a right-click on the desktop-properties. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user#367800

Have you tried starting the GNOME Control Centre from the Desktop menu?
for instance, I've looked all over and I can't figure out how to change the screensaver. in KDE it was a right-click on the desktop-properties.
Within the Control Centre, select screensaver. -- James Ogley james@usr-local-bin.org Packages for SUSE: http://usr-local-bin.org/rpms Make Poverty History: http://makepovertyhistory.org

That looks like the old GNOME 1.x control centre - are you sure you ran it from where I suggested? It's on the Desktop menu on the top menu bar. Alternatively, it's under Applications > Utilities > Desktop (but make sure you choose GNOME Control Centre, not GNOME1 Control Centre) -- James Ogley james@usr-local-bin.org Packages for SUSE: http://usr-local-bin.org/rpms Make Poverty History: http://makepovertyhistory.org
