--- Comment #2 from Takashi Iwai ---
I checked the code of xfce4-screensaver and found that it's likely some hackish
check of the existence of the monitor.
src/gs-manager.c contains the function
static gboolean
gs_manager_is_real_monitor (GdkMonitor *monitor) {
// avoiding some weird gdk bug
// federico> avb: or if you don't care about a little unexplained
messiness,
// just discard monitors where both fields are null? :)
if (gdk_monitor_get_manufacturer(monitor) == NULL &&
gdk_monitor_get_model(monitor) == NULL)
return FALSE;
return TRUE;
}
... and quite a few stuff are skipped if this function returns false. It
includes the creation of the overlay window.
This explains why the things got broken with efifb; it doesn't have the monitor
information, so it looks as if no monitor is connected.
So obviously there is a bug in the fallback code in xfce4-screensaver. Or, we
may simply drop this check at all.
I tested quickly by commenting out those check and returning always TRUE, and
xfce4-screensaver starts working fine with efifb, too.
