Description Bruce Cowan 2008-04-29 14:33:27 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Choosing the "random" option causes the preview to always be the last screensaver available. The actual screensaver itself works as expected though.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Choose "random" mode

Actual results:
The preview always shows the last screensaver present

Expected results:
It should be a random one from the list

Does this happen every time?
