Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/31987
Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
(dapper, as of February 19)
Reasons:
1. OpenGL and other resource-devouring screensavers make certain machines
suffer. (For example SiS does not support OpenGL while many computers use their
onboard graphics).
2. Some may confuse inexperienced users (i.e. BSOD).
3. Some screensavers are ugly, we don't want to include them in a random
pool, there is no way to uninstall them nicely.
