I'm trying to start light-locker as I use light-dm as my wm. When I do I get the message "WARNING **: 14:27:48.916: screensaver already running in this session".



I've done my best to disable Gnome's screensaver, but when I do 'ps -A | grep screensaver' I get "gsd-screensaver" as a process, which I'm guessing is the running screensaver in question. I don't see any documentation about it anywhere so I'm guessing it must part of a recent version of gnome. Whenever I try to kill it it gets re-spawned immediately. How to I go about disabling Gnome's screensaver.
