Hello,

Does this only affect the system() call in xscreensaver_heartbeat() or
also the one in saver_off()? If the latter, I would ask about the
difference to the system call for the KDE screensaver. If the former,
whould it then be Ok if I try to copy the relevant
gnome-screensaver-command code into
xscreensaver_heartbeat()?

Best regards,
Olaf Mandel
