Not sure why it's not showing up. As a test, make sure no instances of xscreensaver are running:
killall xscreensaver
killall xscreensaver-demo
Restart it and check again. If that doesn't work try deleting the config and re-creating it.
@graysky2 I was restarting the computer several times. Killed all xscreensaver
processes. No luck.
Does it matter who is the owner of the /usr/lib/xscreensaver/atv4-2k
? Should it be root?
Also, might it be that on Fedora the location of the script should be different? I was tried to find the location the xscreensaver is using on Fedora, but didn't find anything specific.
It should still appear in the list.
I have the same problem with a fresh installation on Archlinux
I do not know what to tell you guys... I just did a fresh install and it worked per the instruction.
You must edit ~/.xscreensaver to add support for this screensaver
Find the line "programs:" and simply add the following below it:
"ATV4-2k" atv4-2k \n\
"ATV4-4k" atv4-4k \n\
My ~/.xscreensaver
looks like this:
...
textProgram: fortune
textURL: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NewPages&feed=rss
dialogTheme: default
programs: \
"ATV4-4k" atv4-4k \n\
- maze -root \n\

@plagov - if you are still wanting to try on Fedora, can you check where that distro installs the actual screensavers? See: https://github.com/graysky2/xscreensaver-aerial/issues/34#issuecomment-1211446130
Feel free to re-open if that did not fix your issue.
I made everything according to instructions.
The script is in place:
The correct entry is added to the
~/.xscreensaver
file:When I launch the
xscreensaver
application, I don't see the ATV screensaver:
