Description Fab 2006-08-31 07:50:03 UTC
I rebuild xscreensaver-4.24 with the new-login useflag, then I relaunch the xscreensaver daemon : the 'new login' button is not here.

Tried to downgrade to 4.23-r1, same issue.
Tried to reboot, same issue.
Tried to rebuild without pam useflag, same issue.

No 'new login' button to click.

Thanks.

With 5.00-r1 it does not work :(

Attached file : new emerge --info after upgrade to gcc-4.1.

The problem basically was that '/usr/bin/' is not anymore in the path
of xscreensaver... as it is stated
in /etc/X11/app-defaults/XScreensaver-nogl, the "new login" button will
not appear if the command in 'newLoginCommand' option doesn't exists.
The default value for that option is 'gdmflexiserver -l', if you simply
change that (in your ~/.xscreensaver) to '/usr/bin/gdmflexiserver -l'
then the famous button is back!.

Please reopen then.

Yes, I know : I didn't forget this bug. 
I'm currently approximately 1000 kilometers away from this computer, so it's not easy to test the screensaver :-)
Normally, I would be there in approximately 1 or 2 month, I'll reopen when I would have more infos, and if the bug doesn't occurs anymore, I'll close it.
Thanks.
