Bug Description
glsideshow (/usr/lib/
This behaviour is experienced in other image getting screensavers such as carousel etc.
glslideshow is parsing .xscreensaver correctly as is evident if bogus lines are ammended etc.
imageDirectory: /blah is set correctly
Adding -images to line 77 of glslideshow.c st that the line is:
"*desktopGrabber: xscreensaver-
solves the problem for windowed display:
/usr/lib/
With -root as:
/usr/lib/
no image is displayed in with unity/copiz manager
With xwinwrap glslideshow fails with:
xwinwrap -ni -argb -fs -o 1 -s -st -sp -b -nf -- /usr/lib/
with error:
X error in xscreensaver-
X Error of farsion from xscreensaveriled request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 72 (X_PutImage)
Serial number of failed request: 30
Current serial number in output stream: 35
Tried with latest vanilla from www.jwz.org, same issues 0 i.e upstream.
Obvouly my motivation is slideshow on the desktop background.
ubuntu 12.10 raring.
