dont believe there is one as standard but you could apt-get xscreensaver if you see the need

thanks a bunch mpie!

I have DSL HDD'd installed. It runs all the time so the screensaver is nice to have. Worked like a charm.

I loaded the xscreensaver via apt-get.

Not really sure the "correct" procedure to start it.

Ran it from a command line and I get the inital splash screen where you can click on Demo and Settings, but I can't ever get the screensaver to actually initiate. When I try, the settings screen becomes unresponsive and I have to kill it...or the Window Manger and run startx again.

Any ideas?
