[Bug 1390304] [NEW] Noof does not preview or run

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

Noof stopped working in Xubuntu 14.10. I worked in Xubuntu 14.04, I can see it demo in Settings
Manager but I get a blank black screen in Preview and when the screensaver activates.  Other screensavers work.

xscreensaver 5.30 - I just installed the latest deb binary.

I dunno, it's working for me... noof.c hasn't changed since 2011.
