I don't think it's going to be the monitors, it'll be the graphics card. If you have one graphic card with four monitors connected, well that's easy. If you have several graphics cards, you're in for some debugging fun. For what it's worth, the Xscreensavers have always been known to have problems for some people. They were a common cause of surprise crashes (e.g. the computer locked up while they were away and not doing anything), as well as some being just CPU intensive. Like others, I've just gone for a blank screen these days. Though I used to like a slideshow from a curated directory of photos (e.g. I'd select ones for the screensaver to use, not have it romp through every image in my homespace). I don't think there's an easy way to do that, anymore (i.e. not use the whole ~/Pictures folder, without installing a different screensaver). -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.62.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Apr 5 16:57:59 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
