--- Comment #2 from Jens Petersen <petersen at redhat.com> ---
Thanks for the report - I can reproduce this.

As a workaround you could add:

$ cat >> ~/.xmonad/session
gnome-screensaver &
^D

But I am not sure why gnome-session is not starting gnome-screensaver
for an xmonad session - gnome-session management is still a bit of
a mystery/black-art to me... :)

But maybe we should just start it by hand if available in xmonad-start
for now for gnome sessions.

(It might also be better to move xmonad-gnome to a separate package
but that is another story.)

BTW I just tested and same problem seems to happen for
other alternative gnome sessions too (eg Openbox and E16).
So seems this problem may not be specific to xmonad.
