thanks

Hello, sorry for being so long to answer that report, I really had a lot
to do in real life recently...

I just installed a fresh new etch system (in a vserver) and
installed xscreensaver and electricsheep. I'm surprised, I cannot
reproduce that bug.
Everything goes fine on my etch system.

Anyway, I know that 2.6.5 (the version in etch) is affected by an
upstream bug about memory handling, which has been closed in version
2.6.6.

I installed 2.6.6-1 (the package is going to be uploaded soon,
hopefully) and checked that evrything is ok on etch with this version.

So I suppose that the bug your are experiencing will disappear with
2.6.6-1.

I welcome a report though, if you can grab the source package from my repo,
build it on your etch system and then test it:

deb-src http://www.sukria.net/debian ./
apt-get source electricsheep
cd electricsheep-2.6.6
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

Thanks for your report.

Regards,

Alexis.

That's probably it.  I'm running a mixed etch/sid system with 
kernel 2.6.16 from unstable.

Thanks!
