a thing that many of my friends / family members miss about Linux is the availability of nice and nifty screen savers.
What would you think about integrating the Really Slick Screensavers Port to GLX into openSUSE? Or is it already there and I just did not find it?
What about xscreensaver?
It has many screensavers :)
Marucs,
yes, it has... you're absolutely right. But I was more talking about nify, good looking, stunnig ones (openGL based)
It also has some GL ones, but not much ;)
Ciao, Marcus
Maybe you can just have a look at the two sites: [1] http://somewhere.fscked.org/fireflies/ [2] http://rss-glx.sourceforge.net/ Some very nice looking ones. Who knows...

[2] http://rss-glx.sourceforge.net/ The screenshots there look interesting indeed. Solarwinds is the only one we already have (for KDE). I guess I'll look into it
Greetings, Stephan

Greetings, Stephan reminds me ot two things I always wanted to change:
1. can we disable OpenGL screensavers for the random/default mode? It sometimes makes machines crash and drives CPU mad on PC without 3D 2. can we have a search mask in the kde dialog (at least for KDE4)? It's very hard to find a specific screensaver by name. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Marcel Hilzinger Linux New Media AG Süskindstr. 4 D-81929 München Tel: +49 (89) 99 34 11 0 Fax: +49 (89) 99 34 11 99 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

+1 those are just producing heat, so i always want to disable them.

They are disabled if you don't have 3d and are preferred if you don't have 3d support.

Sure! Send me a patch. Greetings, Stephan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
