Instead of bloated xlockmore or xscreensaver, use built-in screensaver for X.

reed@tahoma:/home/reed$ xset s 1 5 -display :0.0
reed@tahoma:/home/reed$ xset s noblank -display :0.0
reed@tahoma:/home/reed$ xset s blank -display :0.0
reed@tahoma:/home/reed$ xset s 120 -display :0.0

"xset s 1 5" means blank in one second (of inactivity) and change pattern every 5 seconds. "noblank" means use pattern. "blank" means blank screen and no X pattern. Use -display or it will do my local X server!

This is in my "NetBSD" diary, because it is pkgsrc-related. I imported my linux-kernel to pkgsrc-wip. Also imported iptables which needs work.
