Cannot start when unity-settings-daemon or gnome-settings-daemon are already running

[nazar-pc]

I'm on development version of Ubuntu 16.04. I have custom session with Compiz and gnome-settings-daemon (currently). The problem is that I can't start light-locker if gnome-settings-daemon is already running:

** (light-locker:9930): WARNING **: screensaver already running in this session

An issue seems related to #54, but debug output is different.

I'm using LightDM of course, using Unity greeter. And gnome-screensaver works fine both with u-s-d and g-s-d. What can I do to find out why it doesn't work and fix it?

For ight-locker to work it is necessary to turn off screensaver proxy plugin of gnome-settings-daemon in dconf. active key needs to be set to false at org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.screensaver-proxy and gnome-settings-daemon needs to be restarted.

I'm wondering however, why light-locker can't integrate there as well...

active key needs to be set to false at org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.screensaver-proxy and gnome-settings-daemon needs to be restarted.

I can't find this now…

But /usr/lib/gsd-screensaver-proxy from gnome-settings-daemon 3.30 is running.
