>Description:

	Recently i found a strange message in /var/log/messages:
	------------------------
	[...]
	Nov 17 18:59:18 progeny /kernel: error: [drm:pid2748:radeon_ioctl] *ERROR* can't find authenticator
	Nov 17 18:59:28 progeny /kernel: error: [drm:pid2752:radeon_ioctl] *ERROR* can't find authenticator
	Nov 17 18:59:52 progeny /kernel: error: [drm:pid2755:radeon_ioctl] *ERROR* can't find authenticator
	Nov 17 19:01:03 progeny /kernel: error: [drm:pid2777:radeon_ioctl] *ERROR* can't find authenticator
	[...]
	-------------------------
	And looking around, i found that this message was produced by a certain screensaver: antspotlight...
	xscreensaver4.14 is currently installed on my system.
	I tried to check if any other screensaver did the same thing but for now i didn't find any.
	This error message appeared after i compiled and installed the dri cvs code some days ago.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
	Fire up xscreensaver-demo and selecting antspotlight in the list produce this error.
 
>Fix:

	Not known.
