electricsheep works but not as a screensaver #94

Closed charltonh closed 2 years ago

charltonh commented 2 years ago

electricsheep is working (yay!) - and even though it works with xscreensaver and runs, it doesn't render, it's just a blank screen when I lock my desktop. I can see it thinks it's running and all seems to work, it's just not rendering. When I kick electricsheep off from the command line, it renders fine.

This may not be a bug with the ebuild but the config files don't work out-of-the-box and I cannot figure out how to make it work as the screensaver it's intended to be, I've tried everything.

Do you have this working as a screensaver? Could you please post your ElectricSheep.desktop file (or xml file) configuration? Is there some other trick?

No. Never tried to set it up like that.

Okay. Well it's great a working electricsheep finally for gentoo. if I ever figure out how to get it to work with xscreensaver I'll post the solution.
