  Just a note on the xscreensaver stuff.  It's mostly what your
video card can handle.  Though I'd had no luck in RH 6.0, mdk 7.2
or 8.0 at setting the noblink feature, but by just using the same
related files from the previous Linux installs moved into RH 6.2,
my screensaver (maze) now runs till I move the mouse or hit the
keyboard -- no more blank screen:-).

  Heh, even most of the screensavers which don't work with the
video card I have in my Dell with a P-III run nicely in the Dell
with a P-II.  So, really, it's a matter of what the video card
does or doesn't support.
