But the settings for my login have never been applied to anything once I've logged out. And why should they, I'm not logged in. It could be that some other desktops (I use Gnome or Mate) may allow you to configure default system settings as well as your own. If they asked you to provide a root password when setting the configuration, it seems likely. As far as screen savers go, yes it was annoying about losing the slide shows, but I got them back with mate and Fedora 20 (at least). I may as well get some entertainment from my computer while it's sitting on my desk not really doing much. And for those who have computers in a business setting, it was a simple way to run random product adverts. -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.19.8-100.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Tue May 12 17:42:35 UTC 2015 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
