Configure GLSlideShow directory
|
When I asked google, there are many complicated ways of getting your own pictures to display for your screensaver's slideshow directory. However, this method is very simple and probably the correct way of configuring glslideshow.
In your user's home directory, create a file called .xscreensaver (notice the period at the beginning). If the file already exists, stoked but in ubuntu 8.10 it does not out of the box.
Add this line to .xscreensaver:
imageDirectory: /home/[your username]/Pictures/Favorites/
Save your file and launch a shell window. Run this cmd:
sudo dpkg -S glslideshow.desktop
That's it, should be good to go. Test out your new screensaver ;)
