   How do we convert old Pixmap files to be used with the new xscreensaver
   program?

   Mark P Lubratt

You don't need to "convert" to pixmap file, you need to give
xscreensaver an explicit pathname because of a bug in the toolkit.
Instead of "bitmap-name" you need to specify
"/mit/mplubrat/bitmap-name" (or whatever).  The X Consortium is aware
of this problem and it will eventually be fixed.
