Hi,
I have heard from the xscreensaver maintainer, after I
mentioned that I could run OpenGL xscreensaver hacks
by doing (e.g.)
$ flyingtoasters -root
but that they all failed when launched from
xscreensaver. His reply was:
> The window that it's drawing on might have a
> different visual ID, if the ID printed by
> "xscreensaver-gl-helper" is not the default visual
> (according to xdpyinfo.)
>
> If that's the case, you can't run GL hacks on your
> real root window (only on a virtual root window) and
> there's nothing you can do about it
Well, xscreensaver-gl-helper gives:
$ xscreensaver-gl-helper
0x25
But xdpyinfo says:

So xscreensaver needs visual 0x25 but the default
visual is 0x23. Now I'm not entirely sure what's
happening here, but the xscreensaver author does imply
that this is definitely a driver issue.
Cheers,
Chris
