The daemon screen saver was being tested in the 3.0-CURRENT tree at the time 2.2.2 was released. It was added to the 2.2.x source tree sometime after that. It is included in 2.2.5-RELEASE. It shouldn't have appeared in the installation menu of the 2.2.2 CD-ROM. But, it appears that its name somehow slipped into there... >>Fix: >If possible, please supply the missing screensaver module on some >ftp server, for example. The daemon saver of the current form cannot be compiled and installed on the 2.2.2 system. Back-porting the latest source to 2.2.2 is not impossible, but not easy either. I wonder if it's worth the trouble, now that 2.2.5 is out... Kazu
