Hi Everyone,

I recently installed RedHat Fedora Core 4 on my system. I would really
like to find a way to stop the screen lock from kicking in after a
period of inactivity. I find that every time I go away from my desk I
have to enter a password to get back in to the desktop.

I am currently using the GNOME desktop and have searched through every
configuration screen i can find but just cannot seem to be able to find
a way to change this.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

Neal

From the gnome panel:  Desktop/Preferences/Screensaver

From the command line: /usr/bin/xscreensaver-demo

Thanks very much! I must have looked at that screen at least 5 times
and just didn't see that option until now. Guess I must be more tired
than I thought.

Thanks for your help.
