Kubuntu 15.04 Screensaver


Hi all,

I'm trying to set a screensaver in Kubuntu 15.04, and when I go under Screen Locking in System Settings where it was in Plasma 4 and where the KDE Handbook (https://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kde-w...l/screensaver/) told me to go, I couldn't find it. Is it not ported to Plasma 5 yet, or removed?

Thanks if you know anything. I know this is close to trivial.

wagscat123,

Plasma 5 does not support the screensaver:

"Back in my day, they added features to software, instead of removing them". I was suspecting that, but wanted to see if anyone else knew. Looks like I'll be setting up xscreensaver manually or something. What a shame...hope enough people complain about it.
