 I played with this a couple of years ago. It is a applet for xscreensaver, I don't recall the detail of configuring it, but it wasn't too difficult. But it does chew up alot of bandwidth, and the results were less than
 spectacular.I ended up unmerging it. Good luck Bill RobertsIIRC the program you're trying to remember is xscreensaver-demoHTH,Simon--

It takes a lot longer than 8-10 minutes, I don't think their download 
server is very quick, or something like that. Wait a while and it will 
actually start working (and if you have it selected in kscreensaver or 
xscreensaver, you shouldn't need to configure anything).
