Re: [colorvision_group] Spider3Utility and Screen saver

2008-12-12 by Wim van Leeuwen

Hello David,

The "screensaver" is used here as an automatic protection against unwanted use of the machine by people who have nothing to do with the contents.
When the screensaver starts I can only go on using it after typing a password, but ........ as the screensaver does not start anymore, the computer stays unprotected.
That is what causing me to write about this problem.

Have a nice weekend,
Wim

The problem appears to be in the LUT function of the new software.

Without question...

When I disable the LUT feature, all is OK.

Not OK really; you don't have any check that the LUT data is correct, and hasn't been replaced by evil gremlins in the Operating System, or some other application or utility.

If the LUT is set to "never" the system runs fine. This is on an XP Pro SP3 system.

Runs fine, but lacks the safety feature. I have to ask what the concern over screensavers is, in the age when they don't save anything?
