wow, I actually found one! :)
I'm on a DS 5000/133 greyscale, and I have found a bug in the x server
that causes xscreensaver to do something funny... when you take a
window (I've been using zephyrgrams) and overlap a xscreensaver in the
following way: (screensaver on bottom)
-----------
| |
| |-------
----------- |
| |
--------------
and then move into the xscreensaver window, the border comes up in the
screensaver button and WRITES INTO THE WINDOW ON TOP OF IT.
Real cool effect. It causes a black residue when it erases the
border...
Anyway, xscreensaver shouldn't be allowed to draw outside of its
screen, right?
Thanks.
