[screensaver] alternatives to the default screensaver

[4291]

Or do you regenerate like Time Lords??

Who(m)?

 

[Black Hole]

Four thousand two hundred and ninetieth regeneration? OMG!

 

[4291]

I don't beleeve it!

That's really one for xyz321 - he produced the screensaver framework.

It is on my todo list. I will probably get around to it sometime this weekend.

What happened to the avatars screensaver - or has that idea gone cold?

Avatar is now available for Web-If download

 

[Black Hole]

Ooh, Ahh, Av-A-Tar!

 

[mihaid]

Can someone point me to where in webif settings the screensavers are?

 

[Black Hole]

Have you installed the screensaver package? If so, go to the Settings page on the WebIF and scroll down until you find it.

Does anyone else think that this thread needs splitting, or renaming to make it into a [screensaver] package thread? It could perhaps be split from post #6.

 

[Black Hole]

Yes.

Update (for anybody reading later): been done.

Good idea

I have split the black screensaver from framework package. The new black screensaver and a new random screensaver should soon be available from the repository.

I am not able to upload new packages, they are awaiting the attention of the main man.

 

[Michaelnuk]

Not sure how I missed this one!

Installed and it looks really good
Don't suppose there's an all in one installer with all the screen savers?

It got split out from a thread with a different title.

Sorry for the delay : ) They're there now!

Thanks.

There is now, a dummy package called 'screensaver-all'. This contains the other screensavers in its list of dependencies but contains no files of its own.

A USB version of all screensaver files could be built (for users without internet connection) if anybody needs it
