Thanks Andre. I wonder whether we all refer to the same green button.

It wasn't among the first hundred or so images reported by Google.
I removed light-locker and green button continues to appear. =8~(

I don't need a desktop environment particularly. Definitely don't
need screen locking. A screen saver is a good idea.
With Wayland/Weston working I think of removing as much of gnome as

In case anyone has helpful tips about the transition from X11,
