Description Ed Halley 2002-05-07 01:37:22 UTC
Description of Problem:
  Under GNOME, trying to run the 'webcollage' screen saver choice gives an error
message about not being able to find any images.

  It appears that the webcollage screen saver must be configured, or that it was
unable to use a normally functioning internet interface and connection.

  The screen saver should be able to operate without any custom configuration or
nonstandard adjustments to the internet connection.

  I may track this a little farther to find the specific reason for its failure;
it may be expecting an old format from an internet search engine, and failing to
parse the newer results.

I believe that is the case, and that this is fixed in 4.05-1.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2002-06-12 06:41:05 UTC
(that is, getting odd results from a search engine)
