 Hello,
Well, seems redundant when you can just D/L the xscreensaver 5.10 package from the `butu repos in all the recent Puppies, and the RSS GL stuff as well.... And other than the root access thing, for less recent Puppies, my 5.07 pet ( available thru the "my pets" directory in my link below) works well, albeit without GL support... _________________ "Close the "Windows", and open your eyes, to a whole new world" http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/puppyluvr/ http://theplpd.webs.com/

I am very new to Puppy/Linux, so prolly something i did 
Anyway, on several, though not all, of the savers in your package I get this error: Xlib extension GLX missing on display 0.0. Is this fixable? Puppy Linux 5.2. Thank you for making this package. (I am really hoping to get the Ant screensaver running like in Mint) Thank you for any info. Have a great day, geo |

 Hello,
I rebuilt 5.07 using the binaries from 5.12. Look here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=66521 All the GLX stuff works in this one... _________________ "Close the "Windows", and open your eyes, to a whole new world" http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/puppyluvr/ http://theplpd.webs.com/

Well thank you but.. that seems to be the same file I had downloaded? I have now downloaded and installed it 3 times. I am looking under menu, desktop, desktop settings, then screensaver. when I open that window it says across top. Xscreensaver 5.07 10-aug-2008. So what am I doing wrong? 
Thank you for the help. geo |

Hello,
From the linked post:
The savers themselves are from 5.12 built in 2011, on Lupu... But the gui didnt compile properly, so I used the 5.07 one.. Since it is both 5.07 and 5.12 I just call it pupxscreensaver for now...
Just click OK in the "root user" warning box... _________________ "Close the "Windows", and open your eyes, to a whole new world" http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/puppyluvr/ http://theplpd.webs.com/

Yep I kinda got that. Dawned on me after I had sent it that was the case, but wanted to make sure I had the right file. I had clicked the OK button each time I tried it, and still get that error. No big deal only a screensaver after all. Life goes on.. Thanx for the help, Have a good one, geo |
