i've tried to get phosphor to run as my screen saver for a while now but
now luck. the only time i can get is if i run xscreensaver-demo but then
you can't really 'choose' which saver you want. anyone know how to 'add'
a screensaver to, say, the gnome control center's screensaver config tool?
see what you said.....

:The xscreensaver that I've been using for several releases has 2 different
:fortune-type files. One is 'noseguy' where the little guy runs all over the
:screen. It uses fortune. The other is called 'phosphor' and it gives simple
:random saying from a fortune-like db called zippy. It displays little
:characters that type across the screen in green phosphor-like characters.
:
:If it isn't one of those, perhaps you actually mean xlockmore, not
:xscreensaver?
