Simon,
I have seen the "Life" screen saver on like all Unix workstations/Servers I
have ever seen, but didn't know there was a story behind this semi-famous
screen saver. If there anywhere on the web where I could find more
information about "Life" the screen saver? Could you give me the jist of it
in a couple of sentences?
Uh, answering you question, it is a screen saver right? Try going to the
Gnome screen propriety and see if you can get it to show the screen saver in
"demo" mode.
Jack
