I'm not absolutely sure that this is what the original reporter meant but I've just run into this problem when using gnome-session to launch my own "i3-gnome" session. My session file contains:
[GNOME Session] Name=i3 Gnome session RequiredComponents=gnome-settings-daemon;gnome-screensaver;nm-applet;i3-gnome gnome-settings-daemon, nm-applet and (my) i3-gnome are launched correctly yet gnome-screensaver is not. This appears to be due to the following line in /usr/share/gnome/autostart/gnome-screensaver.desktop: AutostartCondition=GNOME3 if-session gnome-flashback (I assume that modern gnome-shell launches gnome-screensaver itself now.) If I comment the line out then gnome-screensaver is launched correctly. Perhaps there is a way to invert this condition so that gnome-screensaver is enabled except on GNOME3? Thanks.
