Trying to follow the directions in the xscreensaver man page however
something isn't right. Below is what's to be entered on the cli,

gconftool-2 --type boolean -s
\ /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/screensaver/start_screensaver \ false

however, when entering this I keep getting:

Error: Parse error: Didn't understand ` false' (expected true or false)

and I've tried everything I could think of. What am I missing?
