That is an excellent idea Tormod, It is one of the less attractive screen savers anyway, no one will miss it.
I use an nVidia geforce go 7600 and my computer turns into a freak show when I use desktop effects for a while. Some problems I could not correct: - The screen flickers black from time to time, It doesn't do it all the time but some times, I notice that it doesn't happen when desktop effects are off. I also tried changing the refresh rate and do other things but it didn't fix the problem. - Some times when I maximize Firefox it is black on the way there. That is not a biog problem, but it looks ugly. - I have an Intel centrino Wireless ipw3945 and every time the screen goes off by itself the wireless stops working, I don't think this has anything to do with the graphic card but I thought I would mention it as well just in case. - After prolonged use and for no apparent reason when I open videos I see pink and bluish scribbles but no image, this doesn't happen all the time either. (When desktop effects are on after a while) -- Also, and this couldn't be considered a problem but a nuisance, I have to load the desktop-settings every time after the screensaver goes off because it overrides my color corrections. I can't give specific steps to reproduce these problems because I am not sure what creates them. If you have my same card (and a laptop, I have HP pavillion series dv8000) you can turn your effects to the maximum and wait for the show to start and if it doesn't happen, maybe its me -- although this didn't happen with Windows XP. I checked the Linux driver for my card and the last update is from early 2006, that seems like a long time to me without updating a driver. Hope since Timo reported this, they will read what I am saying now and reproduce it as well.
