xscreensaver error
I recently downloaded Solaris 10 and installed it on a Sun Blade 100. When the unit books up I get two error messages regarding the xscreensaver. I cannot lock the terminal because the xscreensaver is not working. Any ideas about fixing this problem. Is there someplace I can download another screensaver to replace this one?
I am new to UNIX and do not know where to start in troubleshooting this issue.

First issue beside that is this.
How do you get the screensaver to stay on all the time please?
Maybe it's the monitor going to sleep.
Then the Matrixview says 'Not installed'.
Rest of Xscreensaver choices are there.
