Screen Saver

Idle and savers

This panel controls the screen saver and the idle timer that starts it. You pick the hack, how many idle minutes to wait, and whether to lock. Blanking and DPMS, which is the monitor's own power saving, are on a separate tab. While the saver is armed, those are not allowed to be shorter than the idle time, or the monitor would go dark before the hack started.

Icosahedra is one of the hacks, on a host whose build found GLX. After the hack ends, an optional lock asks for the password of the person who owns the session. The hotkeys are Super+L and Ctrl+Alt+L, and they come from the desktop key file.

Screen Saver, the panel that arms a hack after idle and can lock the session. The hack pictures are ordinary windows, on the Icosahedra, Colored Smoke, and Xray Agent pages.
