[Bug 278941] Re: glslideshow keeps showing the same image

 

I'll add my 2c as I decided to do a strace on the config.

For KDE the configuration file is: -
  ~/.kde/share/config/glslideshowrc

Simply updating it to have matching pan/duration fixes the "issue". No
need to install xscreensaver.

Title:
  glslideshow keeps showing the same image

Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xscreensaver

  Using Kubuntu 8.04, I'm unable to get glslideshow to show more than
  one image.  It seems to have chosen one image and always shows that
  image, despite being pointed at a directory with several images in it.

  I used xscreensaver-demo to configure the pictures directory.

  I tried the hacks recommended here:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=212512

  Duration and pan are set to the same value (10).

  Doesn't matter what I do, glslideshow just shows a single image (and
  crossfades every 10 seconds as if it was actually changing images, but
  it's always the same one).
