Hey all,
I couldn't figure out where to ask this question. I came across the Substrate screensaver on a PCLinuxOS LiveCD. Haven't used a screensaver in years but really like this. From multiple Google searches I believe it may have been used on older versions of 'buntu (prior to 7.04).
Any idea where I might find it?

Regards
DOnal

Likewise.

This used to be a part of the Xscreensaver package, but I'm having difficulty finding an ubuntu package with it.

Tips folks? Is there a screensaver collection with it in?

Never mind, found it. It's here:

This appears to work, at least in Hardy. :)

It's in the xscreensaver-data-extra package

sudo apt-get install xscreensaver-data-extra

Guys,
thank you both very much!

Appreciated, particularly since i'm having a monitor power problem & I'm now having to leave it more.

Thanks again,
Donal
