To Disable a Screensaver Display on Solaris Systems

To disable screensaver displays for all users on a Sun Ray^TM client, rename the /usr/openwin/lib/xscreensaver/hacks directory to any name other than hacks.

OpenGL screensaver displays are provided with the GNOME Desktop. By default, all OpenGL screensaver displays are disabled, because many users do not have the OpenGL library installed. Users who have the OpenGL library installed can use the XScreenSaver dialog to enable OpenGL screensaver displays.

Some screensaver displays show the contents of the screen of the user. To avoid security violations, screensaver displays that show the contents of the screen are not included in the Java Desktop System.

The Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) service name for the XScreenSaver application is dtsession. This name is used for compatibility with previous applications.
