Most of my machines have the usual great long list of choices, from abstractile to zoom; but one has only three : flame, hopalong, and rocks. Right-clicking the icon and choosing Properties shows the same command : xscreensaver-demo. Pirut, set to list on both machines, shows the same seven xscreensaver options, and all are checked on both. Why am I geting only such a paucity of choices on the one? What should I do about it? Is there something somewhere that should be enabled and isn't?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about.
