Gnome Screen Saver

Hi All,

!Being a part of Planet Earth but also towards her Greenery is very much important to each one of us.

It's important to lock your systems - before you go away from them - for the security and privacy issues....

Think... Just locking it and going away - displaying your colorful desktop wallpaper - which draws lots and lots of power and electricity and other resources... Is it required or is it feasible towards the goal of saving Earth...??? No not at all....

Use screen savers and that too - simple text screen savers and not too much picture oriented...

In Debian based systems - we have 2 very famous screen savers - one being called XScreenSaver and the other one called GnomeScreenSaver...

Installing GnomeScreenSaver - is pretty much simple.. Import the latest repos and then use Synaptic or any other packager manager to install the package GnomeScreenSaver....

This way - you are saving power, saving Mother Earth and also being secure...

Cos Along with installing GnomeScreenSaver - you can as well lock your systems too..

Ctrl + Alt + L is the command to lock your Gnome Desktop Environments..and you can edit your GnomeScreenSaver settings to display your fav screen saver from a huge collection - once your Desktop is locked :)

Enjoy and take care,
Ananth Gouri
