I've found these main issues:
- if you select a non working xscreensaver theme, sometimes you need to turn off and on again the phone to change to a working wallpaper
- each theme that needs images does not work (black wallpaper)
- sometimes "/BIN/SH: XSCREENSAVER-TEXT NOT FOUND" message appears

Bye

You are rock. Thank you very much. We are going to remove not working themes from package .

btw, a SMALL little pointer that would make tihs PERFECT.
when i slide to switch desktop, the background keeps playing/animating till that desktop is replaced by the other completely (which gives a continuous feel to the wallpaper..and is also awesome!)
is it possible for you to let it play/animate in the exact opposite scenario?
i.e let the background wallpaper play/animate as SOON as that desktop is seen ( i e a small part of it..then bigger untill it fills the whole screen.)
i ask this because currently, when i switch back or forth to one desktop, untill the desktop is COMPLETELY settled covering the whole screen, it does not move /animate.
hope you understood.
(i dont expact you to constantly let the screensaver animate when the desktop is not in use because i know it will simply drain the battery.)

What do you mean? Wallpaper play/animate only when desktop view is active.

The issue with the text I addressed earlier in the thread. The file /usr/bin/xscreensaver-text needs to be edited. the first line should read /usr/bin/perl as a path - not the existing reference to the scratchbox location.

Vlad.

You remove phospor from the package. I have posted at least 2x in this thread how to fix the issue with text based screensavers. look back a couple of pages. Don't remove the option.
