XSCREENSAVER UBUNTU 18.04 INSTALL
I absolutely not going to manually install multiple packages (probably dozens of them!), to satisfy all the dependencies - this is computer's work, not mine. xscreensaver is Screensaver daemon and frontend for X11 Installati.one About Ubuntu CentOS Fedora Kali Linux Debian Ubuntu Ubuntu 18.04 0ad-data 0ad-data-common 0install-core 2048-qt 3270-common 389-admin 389-admin-console 389-console 389-ds 389-ds-base Ubuntu 20.
My CPU is i5 9400F, I guess I have 圆4 version of Mint (would be very strange for default download from official site to be 32-bit in 2022), and I know Linux already started to ditch 32-bit environment, but whatever, I simply tried i386 package, and this time it failed with a dependency error. But I wasn't sure which exactly file I was supposed to download, there are plenty of files of different architectures.įirst I picked ia64 one, but installation was unsuccessful, and error message was about wrong architecture. The most common screensaver installed in most Linux distributions is called xscreensaver, so lets assume that is what you are looking to remove. This is the set of GL screensavers shipped by default: antinspect, antspotlight, atunnel, blinkbox. This package can be used by xscreensaver and also some other screensaver engines. This package contains a small selection of 3D (OpenGL) screen saver modules from the xscreensaver collection. I know Linux guys don't recommend to directly download any packages, let alone to compile it by yourself, but since I saw no other options, I tried to install it manually. XScreenSaver is a modular screen saver and locker for X11, containing more than 200 screen savers. Creator of XScreensaver suggest to download binaries from Debian's site, and install them manually, similar to how software get installed on Windows, I guess. I went to XScreensaver author's site to find a note where he complains about Debian-based distributions' maintainers' policy. The version of XScreensaver in Mint repos is 5.42, the first version to not to interfere video playback is 5.45, and the latest version is 6. This package contains a small selection of graphical screen saver modules (listed below) from the xscreensaver collection. Turned out it fires even while Firefox playing a video, which is unacceptable and makes screensaver useless. XScreenSaver is a modular screen saver and locker for X11, containing more than 200 screen savers.
XSCREENSAVER UBUNTU 18.04 HOW TO
I was disappointed with the quality of a screensaver shipped with Mint 20.3 Cinnamon, so I installed XScreensaver using standard GUI tool (Software Manager).
