Bug Description

As reported by johnl on UbuntuForums:

"I installed the amd64 version on my system, but there are no graphics -- the screen just goes black (both in the preview and when the screen saver actually triggers) .

This happens with both the eternity and eternal-ubuntu screensavers.

I'm using the nvidia-glx-new driver, and the black screen happens both with beryl running and without."

Possible amd64 issue?

If anybody could confirm that the screensaver works on amd64 it would be helpful.

This is caused by the way the amd64 version is compiled and packaged - the eternity-mpeg2 binary is installed into /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin.

Will fix this soon.
