New They are now using...
gnome-screensaver... because as we all know its better to re-write everything already done to the nth degree to get better performance and functionality... and "sane defaults"

No... its not your fault... just teh awesomest Gnome development team.

I use gnome now, as its the only GTK environment being currently supported by many packages.

Bleah.

New There are x-screensaver packages.
The main one can finally now actually replace the gnome-screensaver package properly, too, by which I mean a menu item, and startup when you login. I think someone fought back at the usurping happening with gnome-screensaver. :-)

New Yah.
Pity hasn't extended all that far yet. I'd like better WindowMaker integration... you can run it, but a lot of the hardware management has migrated into GNOME itself. :-/ So I have to manually run gnome-settings-daemon to get both monitors working correctly.
