Greetings:
I have just upgraded to Fedora Core 5 and I notice I hardly have any
screen savers. There used to be many screen savers and I just set it to
random, it was quite nice. Does anyone know off the top of your head
how I can get them all back?
Thanks
Troy
yum -y install xscreensaver-gl-extras xscreensaver-extras
That is if you do not mind the lack of configuring the screensavers with
gnome-screensaver. Otherwise you can more precisely control the
screensavers with xscreensaver-base.
Add
yum -y install xscreensaver-base
if you want the more precise control of which screensavers you want to
cycle.
You should now have two screensaver entries in the menu. You would want
the one with the flame with the background of a monitor screen.
yum erase gnome-screensaver
afterwards if you like xscreensaver-base better and do not plan on you
or any other user of the computer wanting the gnome-screensaver
interface to manage the screensavers.
Personally, I like xscreensaver-base and its configuration interface
better. Lately though, I use the blank screen mostly, so it does not
matter much for the laptop.
