Recently, i browsed to KDE-Look and browsed the Screen Saver section and i find this interesting screen saver called KCometen3. Basically it shows a comet-like effect combined with some Compiz's Cube-alike plugins (it will show your desktop as the default background, but you can change that). Since they only provide source and ubuntu package, i had to use the source and i compile it manually, but at the end, i used checkinstall rather than make install. This command will generate a tgz format which is being used by Slackware. What is the reason for this? Using tgz means It's easier to remove and it will make sure to clean up every files the package had installed. Here's the screenshot for KCometen (I have to retry several times to get the best one, but i know it's not the best one, so you might want to try it by yourself if you are interested in this screen saver).
nice :) I never knew about Euphoria but it sure does look good. Currently I am using KMatrix3D screensaver, but sadly development of that has stopped at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI do like KCometen and I have a slackbuild script somewhere (which I really should upload to SlackBuilds.org)
Well, Euphoria is one of the default screen saver in KDE, so if you install the right package (kdeartwork if i'm not mistaken), then you will have this screen saver installed by default.
ReplyDeletenice work on the slackbuild script. I hope everybody can use your script :D
With those pixel burning picture, can it still be considered as screen "saver" ? :P
ReplyDeleteat least it changed all the time, so the monitor will not burn out :D
ReplyDeleteDoes it required beryl/compiz installed?
ReplyDeleteno, it's not required to have compiz/beryl. It's just a screen saver :D
