Bug Description

This is a wishlist list item & a personal preference--I know that Flurry was removed from the GL savers because it caused video problems with some Intel systems during Intrepid development. I have kept a copy of it on my system & verify that it still works with nVidia drivers (I am currently alpha-testing in Karmic).

I still get requests from members of the community for Flurry & would request that Flurry be re-visited to see if it can be re-included.

Thank You
