Bug 25051

Here detailed description:

I have checked that in the system preferences, in the section "Workspace > Screen lock", in the tab "Visual appearance", we have the option to change the "type of desktop background" to presentation mode. 

The problem comes when we have to select the folder with the images. A common user who is testing Mageia, or has installed it the first time, will not know where the beautiful Mageia screensavers are. 

When you select the "Presentation" option, the "screensaver" folder should appear by default, located in the path: /usr/share/mga/screensavers.

My path is listed below. screensaver do not have an "s" on the end. I just upgraded from mga6.1 to 7 Saturday. I'm not sure if it changed once I upgraded.

$ ls -l /usr/share/mga/screensaver

I'm sorry, the correct path is /usr/share/mga/screensaver/

Regards

Should be fixed with mageia-plasma5-config-7-1.1.mga7 in Core/Updates_testing!

Please test it, thanks in advance!

Hi,

I tried the fixed package, and now if appear the folder "screensaver" how default in section "Presentation".

Very thanks, we can close this bug.

Regards!!

Assigning to QA,

Advisory:
=============================

In the kscreenlocker preference if you select the presentation mode for "type desktop background" from "Workspace > Screen lock" > tab "Visual appearance" there are not any images because of a default missing folder path.
So this update fixes this issue adding "/usr/share/mga/screensaver/" as a default backgrounds folder path.
