request too screensaver options

[Paul]

In reply to Thomas's mail, d.d. Sat, 19 Oct 2002 16:20:01 +0200:

You can check if there is a file called $HOME/.xinitrc. In there, often the
xscreensaver program is launched. If you comment that out with #, the
screensaver won't be loaded anymore and leave your screen alone.

Good luck.
