Hi there!

Can anyone give me a helping hand?

What I want to do is use this: http://vixey.9966.org/swf/miruku/mikuru.swf as wallpaper, but it doesn't seem to work. What I tried so far is to install xwinwrap, however I can only get the xscreensaver to run with the example command that is mentioned everywhere:

xwinwrap -ni -argb -fs -s -st -sp -a -nf -- /usr/lib/xscreensaver/glmatrix -window-id WID

this work, but I don't know how I could run the .swf saved to my drive.

Another thing I tried is what I read, that xscreensaver can run swf as a screensaver, and maybe then run the above command, and none of them seemed to work, also I'd prefer to run it with xwinwrap because I don't think the motion detection would work by running it in screensaver mode, and that is the whole point I want the use the swf for.

Could anyone help me out here?

Thanks a lot in advance
