Hey,
I don’t seem to have the “text program” box in my screensaver settings.

Please take the trouble to skim through other peoples comment before posting a question. Your question is already answered by Chad Jorgenson. Check the configuration file (phosphor.xml) of the screensaver.

Hey,
I don’t seem to have the “text program” box in my screensaver settings. Yeah the screensaver is installed, but theres only a bunch of unrelated settings.. Would it make a difference if i’m using Ubuntu 8.4, with the GDM screen manager instead of KDE?
Thanks!

Well, so this forum engine doesn’t support the code comments I guess, but you should see some HTML comment tags in the phosphor.xml config file to comment out. Sorry..

So if we change it to look like below

I see the new options when I go to reconfigure my screensaver.

Crap, I don’t see the “dump Pipe” and “Text program” text filed in OpenSuse 10.3, I guess they have removed this,
