Bug Description
Binary package hint: rss-glx
Hi, I am not sure if this new bug-entry is really necessary - I added my comment to bug 9740 (https:/
But in the current version of xubuntu 10.4 (today I got a bunch of update-packages) comparable appears:
no rss-glx screensavers are in the selection-list, neither in xscreensaver, nor in gnome-screensaver.
ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: i386
Date: Thu Mar 11 01:16:37 2010
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04
InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Alpha i386 (20100224.1)
Package: rss-glx 0.9.0-2ubuntu3
ProcEnviron:
LANG=de_DE.utf8
SHELL=/bin/bash
ProcVersionSign
SourcePackage: rss-glx
Uname: Linux 2.6.32-
WORKAROUND:
See comment #7 below -
Run /usr/bin/
~/.xscreensaver and add any missing entries. You probably want to back that
file up as the script is only lightly tested.

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.
I did install the package 'rss-glx' to confirm this issue. I then restarted the computer to insure the changes would take effect. The following screensavers are not installed/listed in Applications -> Settings -> Screensaver :
Biof
Busy Spheres
Colorfire
Cyclone
Drempels
Euphoria
Feedback
Fieldlines
Flocks
Flux
Helios
Hufo's Smoke
Hufo's Tunnel
Hyperspace
Lattice
Lorenz Attractor
MatrixView
Plasma
Skyrocket
Solarwinds
SpirographX
Sundancer2
Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!
