Re: XFCE Crashing after installing xscreensaver

If xscreensaver's OpenGL savers don't agree with xfce4's compositor or compiz, the both of them may crash the entire X11. I witnessed this on xubuntu but not yet on freebsd.

Possible exits are:

• disable compositing

• disable compiz

• select only openGL-free or known-to-work savers in the screensaver configuration

hth,
