Well, there's no way of just *creating* a screensaver for FreeBSD at will without a bit of programming on your part, or someone else's :-) if you take a look at /sys/modules/syscons/ you'll find the source code for the console screen saver's there..assuming you have the source code installed that is ! I suppose you could replace the image for the "logo" saver if you want to minimise effort.. :) Good luck! - Cillian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
