* Well, what is "Floating Fedora Bubbles"?
  xscreensaver{,-gl}-extras-rss does not have such desktop files
  (and actually I don't know well about gnome-screensaver).

* Are you using xscreensaver-demo or gnome-screensaver-preferences?

One of the screensavers, and since DRI is not working (refer to bug
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11313) and hence no direct
rendering, it looks the best. Fault occurs with (apparently) all screensavers,
this was just an example. btw, it ships with F7...

Once switching to X component.
X maintainers, would you help us?
