Bug Description

kubuntu breezy, kde 3.4.3

The screensaver itself starts (either automaticaly or through Lock Session),
but the Swarm or Space GL plugins do not start. The screen is locked and not
updated.

The plugins can be started by the Test button.

does this happen to all GL screensavers, or just those two?

And is this rectified by installing kscreensaver-xsavers or xscreensaver-gl?

I wonder if this is the same solution as bug 49228...

Okay, i've restested all of the kde screensavers on kubuntu edgy.

The current, non working ones are:
Bitmap Flag (GL)
Space (GL)

Space (GL) is in the xscreensaver section of kscreensavers, Bitmap Flag is not. Someone who knows more than I do about this needs to look at this bug.

All of the other screensavers work out of the box, kde 3.5.3, kubuntu edgy.
