I am also having this problem on two machines. One is a laptop with an s3 unichrome adapter, one is a desktop machine with an Nvidia 8400GS. I don't think the gfx card is the problem, but something with the open() call that xscreensaver-getimage is doing. I can list the directories from the shell and thunar just fine.
Something is getting a filename to xscreensaver-getimage to send to the screensaver renderer: xscreensaver-getimage: file does not exist: "/media/evectra/evectra/Media/Pictures/2008/East Coast Trip, May/Boston Freedom Trail/IMG_1680.JPG" The laptop exhibited this behavior in Ubuntu 9.10. so I upgraded it to 10.04, same problem. The desktop is at 10.10 The files are coming from a remotely mounted windows share hosted on a Windows Vista SP2 machine. I did do a workaround once that involved setting up a VM, mounting the windows share on the VM, then NFS mounting the VM directory on the glslideshow machines, but that is a bit ridiculous. What other details can I provide that would be useful? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/609451 Title: xscreensaver-getimage can't find image on samba share -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
