    xscreensaver pacman blinking red ghost and slow frame rate

    Hi, I have a Dell dimension 4700 running ubuntu 12.04 32-bit version. I have unity interface not 2d and have an intel pentuim 4 processor with 2.80GHz cpu with 1.536 GB RAM. I downloaded xscreensaver a while ago and had no trouble with it. I just used the pacman one (because it is so cool). At first just the red ghost started blinking, and then the game slows way down and makes my computer work hard. I tried messing with the options but did no good (except could not figure out how to use the -display option which it was originally set). I found a website that might of fix the problem, but it doesn't make sense to me. Can someone please help I miss using this screensaver.

    the websites are http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp...ame.devel/4302

    I solved the problem I forgot to install a package. I am not sure why it was working before?
