Here is what I've got installed: pkg_info xscreensaver-gnome* Information for xscreensaver-gnome-4.15_2: Comment: Save your screen while you entertain your cat (for GNOME users) Required by: gnome2-2.6.0 Description: Xscreensaver will run several programs to continuously update the screen instead of going blank. You can specify the programs and their arguments using resources. You can also add dpms (power saver) options. Xscreensaver will make use of any installed OpenGL libraries, such as Mesa (also in the ports collection). The client-server model employed by xscreensaver make it a superior choice to xlock, since no seperate auto-locking program is needed. It's also extremely easy to add new programs like xearth, or any other program that can fill the root window as additional screensavers. WWW: http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/ $ As with other things on these systems here, I've not actually configured the screensavers, leaving them to default to random files and timeouts. I'd like to know if there is some tweak I can make to fix this, please. Regards, Stacey -- Stacey Roberts B. Sc (HONS) Computer Science Web: www.vickiandstacey.com
