Description Khashayar 2009-07-27 16:51:26 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.98)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Some screensavers, such as glslideshow, require a path from where they grab images they show. In the screen saver dialog, there's no way to define that path. The result, if a user chooses any of these screen savers, is the good old xscreensaver image being used - the ugly (but charming one) with a screen on fire. 

The path can be changed with the xscreensaver preferences tool, but that's highly unintuitive, I guess.
