I installed pclinuxos yesterday and I configured the screensaver with password , but the password box never pops up to type the password in..
It has always been working on other distro's I dont know if I need to install a separate package for it or not...

though I can type it in blind and always works, but I prefer to have a box popup to type the password in....

Office required Windows XP or better, so I installed PCLinuxOS :D

remove noblank.sh in your .kde4/Autostart folder then restart

Thanks to everyone who donates. You keep the servers running.

Weird thing is... it fixed itself... idk, all works fine now... I think it could be a focus problem... I did one thing, I removed the fglrx ati driver and went to the opensource radeon driver... so it could be a bug.. I have always used the radeon driver in other distros and it always filled my needs performance and stability wise.
So if anyone has problems.. you can try switch to the radeon driver.. and see if it fixes your problem..
