Can anyone help me with the instructions to install the Boinc screensaver in Ubuntu 12.10? Does it work like the one in Windows? This is the link http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/browser/boinc/clientscr/screensaver_x11.cpp Thanks in advance! |

If you can wait a bit, I'll be working with the BOINC developer responsible for the Linux version on testing if this thing still runs. We're working on that tomorrow. |

Great! It would be awesome to get the screen saver working in Ubuntu! |

Rom forgot to add it for 7.0.40 and 7.0.42, but he assures me that there will be a compiled X screen saver with 7.0.43. Whether or not it's working, is still anyone's guess. I'll still try to get it and test it out. |
