-====== Frequently Asked Questions ====== 
- 
-===== Why doesn't my screensaver activate automatically? ===== 
- 
-==== Possibility A ==== 
- 
-The screensaver daemon is not currently running. You can check this by looking at the running processes, or just run ''xfce4-screensaver'' to start it up. 
- 
-==== Possibility B ==== 
- 
-Another application has disabled the X11 screensaver. This can be determined by running ''xdg-screensaver status''. If this command outputs "disabled", try running the following commands to enable the screensaver. 
- 
-<code> 
-xset s blank # Sets the X11 screensaver mode to "blank" 
-xset s 300   # Sets the X11 screensaver timeout to 5 minutes 
-</code>
