No, they don't : Xscreensaver 3D items stopped working c 151201 ;
I asked on this list, but found no way out.

Cheers for Andreas (big smile) !
So another question arises :
has it always been necessary to add the user to the video group
-- in which case, I must have made a mistake somewhere,
perhaps when I installed in my new box 1510xx -- or is it a recent change ?
If the latter, how are users supposed to know re such matters ?
On the face of it, video should have nothing to do with spreadsheets !
