[linux-help] Re: Fwd: Something Silly--Making a JPG pageing screensaver

[Michael Holmes <maholmes@xxxxxxxxxx>]

That is exactly what I am up to, I am looking at the package Xscreensaver.rpm. 
There is a url on most installs, I am going to the home page and see if there
is already a build or at least some source code to see how it ticks.

I'll mail later if I turn up something.
