The "real" xscreensaver consists of thousands of lines of code.
You can get it here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=248308
And here is another one:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=23909
PuppyBasic-Screensaver consists just of some lines, less than 100.
Why?
X is a complex system.
You have multiple Desktops, Remote-access functionality, Support for 2 and more Monitors and more.
If you want to keep account of all of that, a screensaver gets quite huge.
So PuppyBasic-Screensaver is NOT a replacement for xscreensaver.
It simply starts one of these modules:
Blank Screen
Parallax-Scroller
XDesktopwaves
Mplayer (Fullscreen)
slideshow
No Password-protection, no support for anything further special.
Usage:
Install, select "setup-PB-screensaver" in your Dotpup-menue.
Concerning Password-protection: not available yet, but I'm on it...
The slideshow uses the folder /usr/share/backgrounds
To use another one, edit:
/usr/local/PuppyBasicScreensaver02/resource/mod_slideshow.pbas

UPDATE: bugfixed version 03 as Pet:

*************************
Note for the slideshow:
if the slideshow module does not work, use this workaround:
Install with Petget the package "gqview".
Then edit:
/usr/local/PuppyBasicScreensaver02/resource/mod_slideshow.pbas
like this:
Code: Select all
#!/usr/bin/puppybasic
include "/usr/lib/wxbasicscript/basefunctions.inc"
shell("gqview -s -f /usr/share/backgrounds/")
a PET with new slideshow module is announced further down!
