|
|
Hello
If i use electricsheep with the --root 1 switch, it only draws the half of my root window.
Is there any way to zoom it to the full rootwindow?
I want electricsheep to draw the background of my Enlightenment.
Thx for Help, Sry my English. |

Does anyone know why this isn't working? Maybe this version doesn't support root-window/zoom properly?
Thanks in advance. |

I got it to work by adding "--zoom 1" to
Code: |
/usr/share/control-center/screensavers/electricsheep.xml
|
the line
Code: |
<command arg="--root 1"/>
|
should be changed to
Code: |
<command arg="--root 1 --zoom 1"/>
|
This must be a bug in xscreensaver because that option doesn't work as a regular user.
Good luck

it works!!! but what happens is that when i click on preview..it shows me a window in the top left corner. but if i click on preview a second time...it shows me in the full screen mode. i've got version 2.5
all of this in the normal 'user' mode (non-root)
here is what I did.
firstly, changed the <command arg="--root 1"/> to <command arg="--root 1 --zoom 1"/> in '/usr/share/control-center/screensavers/electricsheep.xml' file. (i was logged in as a normal user but su to root)
secondly, i put the 'visual' option in the settings window (its in advanced settings) to 'Best' _________________ Keep smiling...its the second best thing you can do with your lips |
