Porting BSD console screensavers to Linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 

Hello,

I have been wondering about this for a few years. Are there any 
[non-locking] screensavers for the Linux console like 'warp_saver' which 
is implemented in the BSD kernel I think?  Could the BSD syscons 
screensavers be implemented in the Linux kernel?  The warp_saver.c is 
included below.

Thanks for all the good work,
Tony Rowe
